  • I finally acquired one of the holy grails of LS engines: an aluminum 6 liter. Although it’s not technically an LS2 it’s still just as good. Other than my personal 2012 Silverado I’ve really never messed with (running) gen 4 engines, so I’m excited to continue to experiment with this one.
    If anyone is looking for a used 2ML70 hybrid transmission please let me know. I don’t need this 300lb thing taking up space.

    Nice looking forward to seeing the verdict working to turn off the AFM while on the stand 💯

    On this video to me the lifters are really loud .I believe it has some bad lifters or needs the dod cam and lifter swap it would be cool to see how the motor sounds after that . 🤟

      @@travisblack417 true that…..up here in the s.f. Bay anything aluminum is around $2500 minimum…..and even the iron blocks if you can find them at the yards start at $1000…for a 4.8/5.3…..a 6.0 is gonna be like $1500…..but yeah an aluminum 6.0 around here is easily $3500…so yeah you hit the jackpot with that one bro!!!

    I almost bought one of these and then almost the newer one. I am doing a Ls3/6L90E swap in a 03'Crown Vic Police Interceptor. I almost bought 1 but I wasn't sure if it was a headache. I was looking for a 6.0 when I came across a L94 6 2L block for $500. Si I dropped flat tops and turned it into a Ls3. My first swap but not my first engine.

      If you’re planning on swapping the cam then the AFM motors are really good motors to look for. 99% of the time the lifter failures are what take the vehicles off the road in the first place. All of the “cheap” LS3’s I’ve seen for sale are totally internally destroyed.

      Ive been prioritizing engine flipping rather than working on and filming my own vehicles. That should change in the future.

    Can the LFA engine you tested run on all 8 cylinders all the time without having to replace inter workings to prevent it from going into 4 cylinder mode while using the carb and MSD box?

      The computer is what’s doing the 4 cyl thing, you can buy a tuner and turn it off while it’s in your vehicle

      That is exactly what I’m attempting to figure out in this video. There are 5 pins in the AFM plug. I have no idea what each of them are for.

    How come ya don’t put a mechanical oil pressure gauge on it

      I was mostly trying to determine if it had oil pressure at all, not necessarily what the number actually was.
