Any updates?

I will have an update soon, just waiting for some more bits of information on the reprogramming of the ECU. The G56 is in place and the rework of the transfer case is being worked on.

It will be a bit longer for that update, took a backslid in progress but HP tuners has been verified ... just a few technical mechanical things we had miscommunication on that has been sorted just means more time added to completion.

Oh no...what happened??

Oh no...what happened??

I think it mostly has to do me and the time involved also I need to let my builder do his thing resulting in a strong built combo and calm down.

I'm sure you're itching to get your truck back though.

Whats the reason for the swap, reliability? I have an 18 G56 i drove off the showroom floor, and I love it, dont get me wrong, but its really a Slug to get Moving compared to an Auto, especially towing.
I know you wont have the detuned motor like the factory g56 comes with, but its really the gearing more than the motor. That transmission is geared low in the first 3, and reverse is ridiculously geared high. Reverse is Useless with any kind of weight behind it without low range.
