I'm researching doing a v8 swap into my cruiser this summer. I was wondering if anyone has anymore information on installing the GM 4.8/5.3 engines. I searched the threads and the only one is a year old. I was wondering if the Mark's adapter will mount to these engines? I also don't want to give up my H55, so I know I'm going to have problems with the engine not being able to talk to the trans. Also for all you Washington residents, what are the DEQ rules about conversions? I'm being transferred to Seattle in July.
 
Not an expert on this one but...

I believe Advanced Adapters has the conversion kit you need to get a 4.8 or 5.3 connected to your H55.

If your donor engine was originally connected to a auto trans then you wil probably have to have the ECM reprogramed or look for ECM from manual equiped engine.
