Message: <blockquote data-quote="zghorner" data-source="post: 2875892" data-attributes="member: 35089">well ive been getting more details about the cost...funny when you talk to someone that's done the LS swap they say "oh its not that bad, turbo, custom piping, quick computer tune and youre done.". Just the wiring harness modification and tune will run me at least a grand <img src="/images/smilies/punch.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":punch:" title="Punch    :punch:" data-shortname=":punch:" />. Had a "buddy" quote me on the rust repair (just tacking in the new metal, no body work+cost of metal pieces) at about $1100 <img src="/images/smilies/punch.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":punch:" title="Punch    :punch:" data-shortname=":punch:" />.Right now the plan is still to focus on the rust repair while figuring up the cost of the ls swap since no matter which way this project goes the rust has to be fixed. Good news is my uncle has an '01 Yukon denali with a 6.0 in decent shape that I think I will be able to get a deal on. I have to verify that it has a 4L80E but well see. Also, I decided to build the factory 12 bolt vs look for a 9". I think the ease of building the factory rear outways the cost and difficulty added in fitting a 9" under there, even if its not quite as strong. Originally I was going to put some newer leather seats in it but decided to have the factory bench redone...some leather Tahoe seats would just look like complete garbage in that truck.</blockquote>
