Hey swappers
Swinging back into the swap discussion after my first start-up a couple of years ago.
I swapped in a 5.3 from a 2010 silverado. New enough motor/pcm, that it took a couple of tries to get the programming right for first start.
Now have a maintenance issue
I might be having fuel pump issues and cannot remember for sure what fuel pump I used. It is an in-tank model. Could somebody give me some part numbers they have used for 58 psi and in-tank, if premature failure turns out to be my problem ?

I am using the stock pump and the corvette filter with internal regulator and return line. It's been 2 years now and no fuel delivery issues. I am using all aeroquip #6 lines with proper adapters.
My stock pump gives me about 45psi, a walbro 342 should give you 58psi

Correct, I have a stock lq9 regulator, from my mechanical pressure guauge with the stock pump so far it seems pressures are always lower than what the regulator should be limiting the pressure to. I will be doing more testing however.
Anyone gotten the stock cruise control working with a LS swap?
Interested in hearing this also.
Especially if it's possible to utilize the stock CC stalk with a bit of wire splicing.
I know @bloc was working on (maybe got it it work?) on his old rig.
There are aftermarket CC units but they look a bit janky.

I got it working on a genIV engine using the gm body control module and the stock toyota stalk. Without the BCM I can’t see it working without an add-on module. At least not on gen4.
Details of my version are posted earlier in this thread

Well I suspect my speed sensor is bad, so I'll replace that with a new one first. Then go from their on getting the cruise working. I made all custom cables to work with the stock cruise control motor already.

What makes you think it’s bad?
Im not positive it is. I tested it best I could and it seems to be working, but it was in pretty rough shape. I took it apart and installed new wires. I would like to take it out of the equation so that I know its 100% a sure thing its good and go from their. Right now my cruise light lights up on the dash when I hit the switch, it just won't set. Keep in mind mine is a 92, 91s and 92s are fairly well known for the speed sensors going south after a long time from what Ive read.

Ohhhh. I thought you were referring to the GM one.

Yea I saw that but mine is drive by cable.
Thanks man but I need to figure out how to do it with a drive by cable motor.
what are you guys using for a coolant temp sensor? I used the factory gm sensor in the head by cylinder 1 and the toyota sensor with an adapter from marks 4wd in the head by cylinder 8. engine temps look fine with hp tuners, usually around 185-190 (data from the gm sensor via the pcm), but the toyota guage on the dash is regularly about 3/4 high. i'm assuming the toyota sensor is conducting more heat from the head through the adapter as the sensor isn't directly in the flow of coolant. regardless, driving around with the toyota guage reading high is a little unnerving, but i'm trying to ignore it.
