6.0 NV4500 K30 swap
The ICT mounts put the Trans/ Tcase where I wouldn't have to drill anymore holes in frame. It all just worked out better. I measured the Center line of the old transmission output shaft height and duplicated my setup.- Raybob9289

6.0 NV4500 K30 swap
Built a NV4500 Mount and NP208 is installed. I ended up having to use the ICT motor mounts. So the back of 6 liter is exactly where the back of the 454 was.- Raybob9289

I ended up using the 2001 Suburban 2500 Hi-pressure hose. Fits great at the pump.. Then I cut off the metric end that goes into the Hydroboost unit. Re-flared it to a 45° flare and boom done.- Raybob9289

6.0 NV4500 K30 swap
Lunch Debreifing; I went back to the adjustable engine mounts. Moved the engine 2" forward. NV4500 shifter is now easily out of the way of the T-case shifter assembly. Tranny Mount is also almost exactly over the factory crossmember. Now I gotta figure out an elevation. See pic. Transfer case is...- Raybob9289

6.0 NV4500 K30 swap
I'm only worried about the NV4500 shifter position and making sure the stock 6.0 fan fits in the original 4 core fan shroud. I'm considering adjustable engine mounts and sliding the engine forward about 1-1/2" to 2" ??- Raybob9289

Several test fits. Went with the ICT mounts but it seams like the engine is really close to the fire wall? Has anybody else done this LQ4 NV4500 swap? I guess I'll mock up the tranny to see where it's gonna land...- Raybob9289

6.0 NV4500 K30 swap
Picked up a working NP208 out of a 85 Silverado K20. $100 also got the Whole shifter, bezel & wiring to light up on the dash. I just need to have my brother do a rebuild and change out the 27 spline for a 32 spline.- Raybob9289
