and this is the first test-run!


P.S. special thanks to my dad-in-law's friend Abdul who helped to make it happen so quick. Otherwise I'd stack by myself with this process for 3 weeks at least.


from old engine left: heads (but machined), and coils. that's it.

Thanks!!!

no no no :)
I'm planning move to Tampa in July. I got 3 kids, wife. My plan to get a flatbed trailer and pull our second car with us (stuff it with things). Therefore I got Tahoe.
I guess Suburban would be better choice (more spacious), but the price was a bit high. But in the end of this story, I ended up paying more :confused: . on the other hand, the engine is completely remastered, most of parts in the engine bay are new or remastered, transmission is brand new as I found out. Not too bad.

You already swapped out the engine? That was fast!

Yes!

I would stuck for 3 weeks at least, but my dad-in-law asked his friend to help me with the swap. His friend works with GM and vuala, it was super quick.
