would it it be possible to drop an ls9 engine in my yukon? or any other type of high performance motor? or just stick to upgrading engine parts and other components?

good idea, bad idea, worth it? need opinions, seriously thinking about doing an engine swap and i will also need someone to do it!

I have seen LS7 go into ours. I would imagine you could.. just the mula that it is going to take. Better off prob cam, heads and supercharger..

What's your budget? Also which transmission do you have?

hell. for 20k i could buy a carbed 572 crate engine ready to run and drop it in with a built turbo 400 and call it a day.. one ultimate sleeper. quiet exhaust system till you flick a tiny little switch and the electric cutouts open up on the headers and your ready to roar. but it all depends on your goals.. do you want to keep factory gauges and looks and functionality.. cause changing the fuel deliver system.. usually requires lots of work.. easier to go backwards than forwards if your just looking for performance.. but if you want a dd.. then it changes it all around
