Well my 4.2 liter inline 6 threw a rod this morning and i lucked out finding a 2004 5.3 liter for 400$ with PCM and complete harness, so now its time to start the swap, I've already got a pretty good idea of everything I may need
Only deal is the 5.3 came out of a pick up so I have to check my oil pan clearances, and im probably gonna just splice in the 4.2 BCM and Fuse panel into to 5.3 wiring harness I know it takes a little more time and its a hell of a lot more than anyone really wants to do but at the same time I'd rather do this than spend 600-1200$ on a complete wiring harness, and seeing as how i can't find a whole lot on anyone going thru with the swap because somehow they feel its not at all feasible, well I guess its about time to show you that if you want it you can do it
