IDK. But this is just a stupid nightmare I came and searching forever after seeing the LT 5.3 and 6.2 engines are aluminum! So I don't have any budget yet.How many tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds or thousands of hours of time do you have access to in order to do this.
Ah; just remembered that we don't have any SS/Commodore or Caprice. And there is only 2 Escalades to the whole country. And the Commodore tax bill would be 4x the car price. And if you saw, there is no gas(petrol) or even diesel to my car. Only 20l per week! And that 6.2 will eat that in 10s🤣I'd love to see that.
Yeah. That 9th gen impala SS, Monte Carlo SS and some other cars (I don't remember) had the LS4 which is the only transverse LS in the world! It had a 4T65-HD and a TRANSVERSE ONLY BELL HOUSING. So that's the catch. That 4T65 is mostly at the limit. And 4 gears + 5.3 V8 is even bad than a 5.3 with a 6l80!The Chevy Impala,like 2008 era, had a transverse LS v8 but full cast iron
What country do you live in?Ah; just remembered that we don't have any SS/Commodore or Caprice. And there is only 2 Escalades to the whole country.

It's hard to find even any gm car except that cruze made by Suzuki in 2001(And some aveos)
So I should come to US somehow to buy a SS and/or to swap the engine!
But those SS are so rare in the US thus so expensive and I can do even a LT4 swap to a newly bought(used) Cruze and make it like 1000hp for that price! (Seriously; look at the prices here or somewhere else)
I think you should check about it under my profile picture and the name (After the registered thing there is a country flag), in my profile info or the bottom paragraph of the original post(question)!What country do you live in?
That's a really long name for a country.I think you should check about it under my profile picture and the name (After the registered thing there is a country flag), in my profile info or the bottom paragraph of the original post(question)!
Anyway; It's called SL (Or Sri Lanka). And now there has one of the crappiest governments in the world. You may found everything about it in BBC or somewhere!That's a really long name for a country.
Sorry I asked...
Sorry; I was thinking to change the topic! So is it possible to use a Holley EFI system and use other original computers?The problem is the platform messages need to match perfectly.
What those platform messages look like varies vehicle to vehicle.... Most of them are the same but its the special cases that get you.
The general approach is you use an interceptor (think MITM). These can be $10,000 each assuming one exists.
A purpose built box will be $150,000 to $1,000,000 territory depending on needed features.
USD of course.
Same problem.Sorry; I was thinking to change the topic! So is it possible to use a Holley EFI system and use other original computers?
You're better off not using the OEM entirely.Or just easy to LSA swap or 5.3 aluminum (Aluminium) swap with a Holley EFI kit and make the gauges work somehow(A 6l80 or 6l90 is better)!
You mean not to use anything like the stock bcm, gauges, radio or anything right?You're better off not using the OEM entirely.
Same problem. Simpler. But same problem.You mean not to use anything like the stock bcm, gauges, radio or anything right?
Ok so what about ditching out the ECM and TCM? And use other modules except the gauges?
Like using other body functions but with separate gauges for speed and tacho?
And did someone saw how Western Champlin cummins swapped a mustang but keeping the stock bcm and what not?
So I think this is why no one swap engines on newer cars! And they simply buy older cars and swap or modify the one came with!Same problem. Simpler. But same problem.
Many modules rely entirely on CAN. You can’t just apply 12V to a wire and expect everything to turn on.
Pretty much yes.So I think this is why no one swap engines on newer cars! And they simply buy older cars and swap or modify the one came with!
