    162K miles 01 LB7, too many?

    Personally I like the LB7 the best of all the editions, mainly due to the lack of emissions controls and the excellent mileage compared to the LLY. But as far as reliability the LLY may be the best choice..... I say buy the truck, rip it apart, get a cutting torch and hacksaw and a welder and...

    162K miles 01 LB7, too many?

    the LLY and LB7 are almost identical in dimensions. I would get an LLY over the LB7 only for the injector issue. But either will work great. Would you rebuild the tranny yourself to stage 3/4 specs? Thats still a pricey thing, While it is out you could just put a transgo shift kit in and a...

    162K miles 01 LB7, too many?

    just rebuild it when you get it and put in new injectors/cups and add a extra fuel filtration like fass or airdog. then you will be set. 162k really is not a lot though, so if money is tight I would just get it in there and run it like it is.

    4L80E cant decide if it wants to be in 1st or 2nd

    whats the fluid look like (color,smell,level). Have you dropped the pan and checked the filter for being properly seated? Or any metal inside the pan? I would start there before anything. How did you check the converter?

    02 LB7 for a transplant?

    yes 01-02's were prone to head gasket failure as well as injector failure. if your going with an LB7 just upgrade your filtration system to one like airdog or fass to help prevent injector failure. keep your coolant changed per the owners manual is the only suggestion I have for the head...

    LBZ Extended warranty?

    If you drive your truck quite a bit or depend on it for making a living I say yes. But if you are getting a daily driver and the truck sits a lot I would save that money for a rainy day and hope/pray you dont get one.
