Not sure what you mean, but when you do a search on their site for LS1 ... you get about a thousand returns. Looks as though they have moved all of their LSx articles into a subdirectory called lsx_engine, then I found the article which started "0608..." (which relates to June '08, or the article month) and found it from there. I tried using the name of the file (which was available from the old link) ... but then again ... why am I trying to explain this? Purpose of posting was to give a current link so people could find the information. Hope it helps.

Slowly gathering parts for LQ4 swap
I'm a little lost on the ABS when converting over to the LS motor. I seen on here where you have to run both PCM so the ABS still works? I'm fixing to to do the swap on my 96 truck in a month so I'm trying to get all the info before hand.. My plan is to get a wiring harness from Nelson's..
Also I'm dropping in a 2002 6.0 what fuel line fittings do I need? But I'm not going to use the stock truck intake was thinking of going with one of the car intakes just not sure the one I'm going to use!!
Is there anyone around Houston on here that's done the swap to the 96-99 truck that I can get with if I have any ??'s
Great info. Who sells the ac adaptor or relocation bracket to use the 95 compressor on a ls engine?
Agreed. THis is a very helpful thread. Shoudl be read by all before they try their first swap!
and I call myself a mechanic...
Just read the whole thread.
Lots of good info in here After reading this, the wiring is the only real thing that is puzzling.
I do have one specific question though, related to a LY2 swap into my '92 full size Blazer.
What do I have to do related to the stock trans in my '92? Its a 700R4 with the only electronic piece being the torque converter lock up. I have read that I can wire the trans so the torque converter locks up automatically, but that it only does so in OD, where mine locks up in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th (I think) and want to keep that functionality. Can this get wired to the factory engine computer? Does it need to be wired via a separate torque converter lockup control system?
seriously, the 700r4 will not live even with a 4.8l unless its beefed up. www.hotrodlane.cc has adapters to make the 700 work but its gonna need help.
