As far as mods after the swap goes if im installing headers just to run a stock 3.8 pulley then whats my next step in mods so i can run a 3.6?

you can clamp a cat in place too, how mine was before i welded it in. cat takes th eplace of the middle part of the sd down pipe.
you cant swap in any of your stock crap exhaust, its in the trash bin now.

the 3 inch clamps you need to buy already will clamp the cat in fine.

Hey so i was looking on wbody store and they actually make the wiring conversion for the map sensor but it also comes with the wiring for the boost bypass selonoid which i dont have and havent heard anything about it. So do i need this bbs for my swap?

Should i go with zzps top swap gasket kit? Its 185$ but comes with all gaskets new rocker bolts, head bolts, and crank bolt? Im open to other cheaper alternatives as well

you don't need a boost bypass valve solenoid. its job is to cut boost while you are in reverse and when the traction control activates. sometimes it causes issues with boost, and you don't have as much as you should, so a lot of people do the delete. ZZP has the gasket kit, but if you look on rock auto you can find the complete gasket kit cheaper. some gaskets can get reused, others absolutely can not, like head gaskets.Quote:

buy the magnum brand lim gaskets off rock auto, metal and they come with a lot of extra o rings and gaskets.
if your gonna re gasket the whole engine, buy a lower conversion gasket set, its 30 bucks. has front and back seals and cover gaskets and the pan gasket, water pump, oil filter housing gasket, and a few others.
then you need to get head gaskets and thats it for gaskets.
TTY head bolts are 16 bucks or so new. rocker bolts are cheap, reusable bolts are like 25 bucks.
Well i need the sc and tb gasket as well

And vc gasket
Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk
sc gasket is called a upper plenum gasket, its 11 bucks. the tb is like 5.
vc can get up there like 50 and up. you'll want the new grommets with the set.
Ya i dont understand why the vc are so much my l36 vc was 20$. Anyway do you know if the plenum gasket comes with the pcv valve gasket and the o-ring for the vacumm tree?
Sent from my LG-D851 using Tapatalk
it does not. nor do i think theres a gasket under that plate covering the pcv valve.
