I for one would love to have the non emissions swap version. I already have a 5.3 that i modified the stock harness to run as a stand alone with all the emissions bits deleted.

 

And it runs on beer!

 

Don't they all?

 

Nice job with the harness! This will 100% work with our setup. Some parameters in GM ECM will have to have be changed and there will be a bit more wiring to do. The kit should have basically everything else you need though.

More announcements during the weekend.

 

I'd be interested in in just the adapter and mounts most likely. Oh and one of Daedrix's stand alone harnesses lol

 

 

It was a productive weekend! We installed all the front accessories and serpentine belt. The Rover alternator, A/C condenser, and power steering are all working very well. We were even able to use the factory fan. Exhaust welded up, so it's a bit quieter now. Took it on some longer test drives, programming and tune need minor tweaks, but overall runs great. Cruised at 60 for a while and temps were perfect.

We are also going to start converting a '02 Disco in the next couple of weeks. I'm going to start to daily drive the LS '04 for a while to get some miles on it.

We've heard back from suppliers and I think that we have a solution for both the non-emissions and emissions harnesses for the LS. The Rover harness will require significant modification. We are going to have a do-it-yourself wiring option with instructions and a harness rewire service.

 

Cool
Ballpark price yet?

 

We are aiming for the price to be between $1500 and $1700, but that is subject to change. That would include the adapters, mounts, accessory brackets, other necessary parts, and instructions. Other major parts that would need to be purchased separately are the engine and LS harness.

We are looking at outsourcing some of the CNC machining which should increase our capacity. I am working on a total bill of materials of everything that will need to be purchased.

 

Not bad.

Thanks for helping us out with this!
