I knew it wouldn't last long having 120 thousand on it behind the 6cly. Oh well, already have a 4l60e in the shed from a 98. Anyone know if this can direct swap? Shaft size and length wise? I can get 07 from a suburban for next to nothing as well.

Installed pace setter long tubes and new muffler as well. This log was before the intake and injector swap. The stockers were struggling. As soon as it warms up I'll be pulling engine to swap trans and cleaning up things. Come on summer. Btw I love this truck if you can't tell

98 tranny? Maybe. Check the connector and pins. If they match up, it should work. The 07 is a safer bet.

BTW, if you went from a 4.2 to a 5.3, I sure hope you swapped the rear diff. The original 8.0 will grenade in short order.

I haven't swapped rear end yet. Have to hunt down bigger one. I like the gears in it so will have to find out what's in there. Easy to find out by the glove box codes. As far as the connector on the 98 trans, it has same round plug on passenger but nothing on the driver side. Looks like it's missing and can be added. Think it's a neutral safety but not sure.
