Overview
After my original build of a suburban was destroyed by a drunk driver a few months ago, I went and bought another suburban to carry on the legacy. The previous 'Burb had an '01 5.3/4l60/241 combo, this time around I'm gearing up for a Gen V L83 swap! The 5.3 L83 was sourced from a wrecking/pull yard in NH, the 6l80e was sourced from craigslist down in FL, the 241c was sourced from craigslist here in MD.
To do the Gen V swap, I found out a TON needs to be done before it can go in. Cam, DOD delete, Dirty Dingo brackets/mounts, LS2 water pump, etc etc...
After a ton of research I've finally bought almost everything I need, so here I am to document the progress as best as I can!
The Build Photo is of the 'Burb the day I took 'im home. Updates to be in the thread!
