Need help with my 6.0 swap in a 98 silverado
#11
Tc torque converter or traction control? Don't think it has traction control. Do not care about a.c. but do need the gauges to work. Looking for the best cost effective way and easy way to get it to run. I'm pretty good with wiring if I know what I'm looking at. Stand-alone is an option but open to other ideas

Fair enough. OP.. maybe further describe what you want to do with the swap. Going standalone is easy. Making everything work in your 98 is not difficult.. just time consuming. That was more the point I'm trying to make...

Best place start is to lt1swap.com as stated above. There is also a Facebook group called OBS/LSX Swap. Join them if you have facebook. There's alot of good information there along with some decent articles and stickies.
There is some good stuff here as well:

6.0 conversion in 2000 5 sp silverado
Hoping I am in the right place on this site. I bought a 2000 6.0 to transplant in place of a 4.3. I am aware that I will need a lot of modifying to make it work. My question is this-my 2000 Silverado has 4 wheel drive with a 5 speed manual transmission. Will this 6.0 bolt up to the 5 speed transmission either stock - or with a adapter plate/bellhousing? Where would I locate such an adapter if necessary? The stock transmission is >>>>Exact PowerTrain T5LM604399T4 <<<< I would like to keep the stock 5 speed so as not to have to rework the 4 wheel drive system. The truck won't be used for pulling or off-roading/climbing-just a street toy/daily driver. Any info would be greatly accepted and appreciated.
