Replying to: leadfoot4 (May 07, 2007 2:22 am) Hmm: SAME bolt pattern, probably same mounts, same ECU. Where's the difficulty in moving a rad ahead and rerouting the exhaust? This is a light truck and I don't want a gas guzzling heavy V8 in it. There is no need. The I6 should have been in there in the first place.

Hi, Does anyone have any information about potential problems that might be encountered upgrading to a 2009 engine in a 2004 2wd 5mt 3.5L? I would hope to reuse the entire original exhaust system (may need to match exhaust ports), ECM, and other original external parts except for the alternator. This is a California emissions truck so it must look & function as original. My truck has the original cylinder head (still OK), 112,000 miles, & is used for a lot of towing. The cylinder head issue keeps me nervous and needs to be resolved. I keep my vehicles until they are totally used up; my old Suburban had 460,000 hard miles. Russ |
