5.3 Swap

[uli93]

I'm thinking about doing a 5.3 swap on my OBS Tahoe. I got the hook up on an engine and transmission for 1000 bucks with low miles. Any body got some pointers on this kinda swap?

There's another member doing the same thing right now. If you look around and search you'll be able to find his thread and some others.

Good luck!

you should be okay as long as your got a cherry picker (engine hoist)
and before you start unhooking hoses and wires get in the habit of labling everything
also i believe that tranny your getting with that 5.3 is probably the same 4l60E thats currently in your vehicle id probably save that tranny thats yer getting with the motor for a rainy day
