Going to do the 5.3 to 6.0 swap. I have an 07 LTZ and was wondering what year lq9 motor do I need for easy swap?
 
Good post...... I was going to ask questions concerning the swap also. I'm considering a 6.0 LQ4 or LQ9 swap in place of my 5.3 in the future and going to try to get info on the swap and upgrades for bettering towing ability.
 
Same year is easiest swap.

When you have AFM there are extra steps if you change from it or use an engine
with out. There is also steps on a 6.2

What would these extra steps be?  I've got an 07 LTZ with an LC9, and the engine (and AFM) have to go.  I don't need higher performance, I just need a working engine and I'm tired of trying to keep the LC9 working.
