Hello Everyone,
This will be the new thread to follow for the LS2 swap. To Recap quickly from the other swap thread. My reasoning to swap again is for several reasons.
1. I am fascinated with the LS2 and must have one.
2. I feel I have hit the limits with the A442F. I want to see how the GM trannies perform.
3. I want to drive this vehicle longer distances and back and forth to work once and awhile. The extra 100hp over the LT1 will be fun.
So I chose the 400hp LS2 engine from a 2006 Chevy Trailblazer SS because of the Aluminum block, Manifold designed for more low end power, and ideal front accessory layout. The matching transmission is a 4L70E and I am using that mated to the factory HF2A tcase via a Marks conversion adapter.
The project will move fast and then at a snail crawl from time to time. I own a manufacturing business (really it owns me) so often I will disappear for awhile bc the biz workload dictates I focus 100% on it and not my toys. So hang on, I will try to post up as many pics as I can and as much detail as possible with the time I have to share it with fellow mud members.
