I finally finished after some overheating and a driveshaft eating some wires got this thing finished! And its a custom kit on this one I didn't buy a kit from motech wait time was ridiculous. Specs: Built 5.3 aluminum L33 block 6L80e PSC hydro assist for the LS New radiator 2-black magic fans- one pusher and one puller 5.38 gears suck now lol Going to 4.56

Roughed in
More to come!

Subscribed! LS is the dream for my jeep....it's hoping! Post some round prices too if you don't mind. I've got to start saving.

You have my props. Engines are not my expertise. I wanted to try an ls swap with a Megasquirt or something but its beyond me i feel right now. Doing it without a kit did you run into any big problems or really nothing to bad?

I had a guy do most of the work for me. The only part that was difficult was the bracket for the PSC hydro assist pump other than that everything was great, $7,100 on all the parts and $5,000 for the motor and trans.

The price really depends on which motor you pick and if you can find a good deal in one.

why not get 37s and still run 5.38? 5.3l+6l80e overdrive should make 70mph at 2300 and 2900 in 4/5 gear breezy. 17/8 inch tread is good for +50,000mi before either replacement or regrooving for a mud tire without rotation. You can hear grapplers easier when they get real low on tread. Have you ever thought about regrooving insteaD?

That sounds amazing! I can't wait to do an LS swap. Unfortunately it will be a year or two.

I do have 37s and that is way too high an rpm for a v8 to be running down the highway destroys gas going 75-80 I want it 2000 at 75.

Also the 4lo is unusable even though I have a stock transfer case, had to get rid of Rubi case it was so low I could put a brick on the gas and walk faster than the jeep lol.
