LS3 Swapped H3T

JJT · Apr 23, 2015

This guys rig is awesome and I haven't seen it on the forum so I thought I'd post it.

Would be cool if he started a build thread here...

Engine start is @ 2:42

Wonder if he kept stock tranny

High Five H2 · Apr 23, 2015

why did he use an LS3? an L92 makes more sense. same accessory brackets and the truck intake manifold is a lot better than the car one. the LS3 is designed for cars, L92 for trucks. just wondering. cool project, though. I'm also wondering about the tranny. those 2 extra gear will do a lot for performance by themselves if he used a 6L80.

Damn, that's nice. Love to know what a crate LS3 costs.

cool, i wasn't paying attention enough i guess haha. I have been shopping for crate engines on that website for no reason whatsoever, just to dream.

so 8k later, not to bad price wise i guess

I wouldn't go with either the truck intake plenum or car, I'd go buy a FAST92 intake TB and fuel rails they make a ridiculous difference over stock and they look [emoji108]

I hear the truck intake flows better than aftermarket ones - a lot better.

RamRod · Apr 24, 2015

hot damn!

I am sure we are going to start to see alot more of this as these units get older & cheaper!

Would love to know more info on this as well!

Thanks for sharing the link.

SWANK3T · Apr 24, 2015

Love everything but the badges

owlxxx · Apr 24, 2015

I just like the way it sounds.

Clarke · Apr 26, 2015

I wonder what headers he used? Need more details...

cna · Apr 26, 2015

Now that's a great swap impressive

whylee · Apr 26, 2015

It would be great to see a complete write up on what was required and what parts were used.

+1. Post a comment on his YouTube vid.

I did a couple of days back, waiting for a reply!

Mb30sdl · Apr 27, 2015

I think he started with 5.3 and not I5

I believe your right, regardless of what he started with, this thing must be a beast!

High Five H2 · Apr 27, 2015

i asked a few questions on the video, but no reply yet. he's replied to other people so maybe he just hasn't checked in a while.

06 H3 · Apr 27, 2015

yea, he said he started with a 5.3L He should have been able to reuse a lot of this previous things when it comes to the harness. Im curious what he upgraded in his 4l60e

RamRod · Apr 27, 2015

& how well it bolted up, or were adapters required?!?

He mentioned that he regretted not putting in a (stronger) torque converter, so my guess is the 4L60E is still stock.
