Then you can still run your stock 5.3 intake, but performance will suffer

Not at all worried about the small loss on the intake. It might help keep me from destroying the 4L60e so quickly.

as for what brands you can pick from Caspers, PSI or Racetronix, I've used stuff from all 3 of them and had good luck

if your trying to save your 60e id put a BIG trans cooler then install a stop behind your go peddle, then prey to the performance gods! maybe you'll be one of the blessed few that has a golden 4l60e lol

Huge trans cooler was installed at about 30k miles. Has 130k on it now. Fluids maintained regularly. Hoping she holds together.

What are you bumping for? We told you everything lol

the NNBS intake is a bolt on affair and offers 25hp/15tq (ish), silly not to do it IMO

you need a truck balancer, didn't see that answered for you already

I’m sort of in the same boat as you, I’m in the process of swaping a complete 2012 LS3 into my 2005 yukon Denali.
I ordered the Linghnfelter 24x 58x Convertor box
and the knock sensor, crank, cam, and fuel injector conversion harnesses from Wiring specialties . Com
Other then that I’m going to be using the stick harness and also a ict throttle body adapter to run my stock TB on the LS3 intake manifold.
