Well we started on it tonight we made pretty good headway with it.

Just found out that i have to work Sunday, and the TC won't be here until about thursday, so it's going to probably be next weekend when we fire it up (hopefully!)

 

I hate to be nosy, but are you installing a cam??? What size convertor are you going with???..... reason I am asking, I want to do the same swap you are doing, I have a tr224 cam, I am just curious about the injectors being maxed out.... just curious as to your plans, again sorry to be nosy and threadjack....

 

I have a comp 222/222 112 LSA cam, i'm going to try a converter from red star performance. The injectors shouldn't be maxed out with these minor mods.

This is my DD, so my combo may seem real mild, but i think it's going to give me exactly what i was looking for.

Don't worry about asking ?'s or being nosy. i started this thread in case anyone has any ?s or is curious how my swap was going.

i'll let yall know how i like that TC when im done

 

What's the specs on the stall? 2600? 3000? Also, what year 6.0 is it? where did you get it and how much?

 

i believe the stall is around 2600-2800.

the engine was actually pieced together. the block is an 02 i believe, the crank is 01+, the heads are 02, and the pistons are actually brand new LS2 ( same as LQ9).

block was $400 from ls1tech
crank was $75 from ls1tech
rods $160 (i think....its a long story) from PT.net
pistons w/ rings $130 from ebay
heads (w/ lifters, vlv covers, etc...) $250 from ebay

 

mine were!

 

Im pretty sure your injectors will be pretty close to being maxxed or maybe they will be maxxed, atleast mine were....

 

really? i haven't read that anywhere until now...should i look for some 8.1L injectors?

 

yes you should

 

damnit.... just when i thought i was done spending money...

will it run well enough with the bigger injectors, to drive over to Wheatley's?

where is a good place to get them besides ebay?
