Putting the ls364 in my 02 Escalade ext, will it run so I can drive it to the tuner?

Mine ran well enough to get it to the tuner. I had it tuned by a transmission shop in Arab, AL. He did an awesome job. Took it back after driving a few weeks and he tweaked the tune a bit.

That is sweet... I built up an LQ9 and 4L60E in my setup. Pulls hard but doesn't really accelerate like I thought it would. Will go up about any road though with ease... curious how yours pulls. Have you dyno tested?

Here is a dyno comparing stock LQ9 with the LS364/450. HP and torque is improved across the curve.

Time to get some 1/4 mile passes in to get the actual rear wheel horsepower.

This is super nice all together how much do you think you are into it for?

$5.5k for the truck and around $17k on the build. I know that’s a lot, but it’s my daily driver and I expect to get 7-10 years of use.

I'm also curious on actual rwhp.

Honestly not that bad for a fully built truck that's basically brand new.
