Hello all! I’m finally doing the swap from a 4.3 to a 5.3 engine in the 08 sierra and I’m currently doing a write up. I’m trying to find an aftermarket wiring harness for the 5.3 but it has to been late 07-09 just like the engine itself and pcm as far as i know. I bought a jegs ATK engine 5.3 and this is the only piece i’m having trouble with. Painless does not have it for ls 2007+. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Get ahold of Nordstroms Automotive out of Garrettson SD. They can get you a harness which will start in the $250 range then you'll have to send it out and have it done up. The guy I spoke with this via text late last night did a 60's impala LS upgrade and sent the harness and ecm to a guy off eBay. The guy tuned the ECM and had everything setup for when he installed the harness, ECM on the vehicle. 

 

He said if you look on eBay you'll eventually come across the guy. 

 

The guy I spoke with only did this for his vehicle as he's to busy running the Nordstrom Automotive Recycling being that he's second on the ladder below the owner so he said he can't recall who did the harness for him but it was a eBay guy  

 

Hope this is able to help you.

Did you have any luck yet? 

 

The guy I know @ Nordstroms gave me some information I forgot to share back with you. Wouldn't be to bad either as you could send the ECM and have it tuned as well. Send me a private message thru the system as well.

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
