1.What year & model vehicle can be a donor for engine for the 07 97x?I know trucks & tahoes come w/ 5.3 but don’t they have larger 4L80e transmissions and the 97x has a smaller 4L60e trans?
2.can a impala front wheel drive engine be used?
3.can a older 06 or 05 LM7 be used, w/ like swapping the original engine relucktor wheel?
I see a lot of used engines older than 07 not seeing many 07 and newer.
