Bought, wrecked, rebuilding a 2009 LMM
Well it runs, ECM for some reason wants to run idle at 1000, vs 700.. have to do some double checking ... the ECT doesn't track temp as well as the one in the coolant passage.. I'll move that later.. Been decent day, time to wrap up and go to bed lol Make the wires less ugly later🤣- malibu795

While I'm sure they are out there, market usually correct them as everyone leaves.. I've never had a company push for the full clock. Regularly I have a friend that drives for ABF...

Bought, wrecked, rebuilding a 2009 LMM
The big blocks don't have rear coolant boss like the small block do with aftermarket intakes.. the only other places already tapped are in the cylinder heads between 3/5 and 4/6 cylinders and those spots read hotter then at the thermostat housing I'll just drain the coolant, drill and tap the...- malibu795

Yes that's a mechanical temp gauge, the FAST system monitors it, but you can only see it if the hand held display is connected Ultimately I'm duplicating this .. this the a on/off temp switch I use to control the electric fans on my Malibu wagon- malibu795

Duramax in an old 6x6 in Germany
The 06/07 Chevy Express vans came with LBZ/4L85. Mechanically it's a derated LBZ from 360hp in the pickup to 250hp for the vans...on paper it's a LLY The TCM is a T42... The Allison needs a T14/A50 The y bridge and coolant bridge are biggest difference between van and pickup- malibu795
