Not quite what you may think. I swapped engines, with the sheetmetal attached.
Recently bought an 05 gmc SD truck. Too nice for work, and the existing 04 Dmax out towed it and better mpg. I already had an 01 GMC C3 (same truck but with ec rather than 4 full doors, and now sporting a turbo, although still working out some issues, including the proverbial 2-3 4l65e slip shift).
I took it in the shorts, but traded the SD for an 05 SSR with the LS2 and a 6 speed.
I'm checking the availability of exhaust, cia and a custom dyno tune. That should do till the warranty is up, along with some better braking. I'm hoping for 425hp or so, till we opt for a radix? Mid 13's with the warranty still intact sounds pretty good, and hoping for 25 mpg!
I think I'm single handedly making state farm rich!

 

Cool man, good luck with the new ride...be sure to get some pics!

 

I'm not sure there is tuneing out for the ls2 yet, but i could be wrong, good luck and congrates on the new ride.
