ahhhhhh okay, well the LLY doesn't have injector issues, and it sounds like some of its issues have been fixed

You say it has EFI live but does that mean you get the V2 with the truck in the trade?

It sounds like a decent swap to me, the LLY can be a beast with the proper mods

ok well that means you're not really getting efi live, but basically a tuned ecm that you cant change, ask him for the stock and dsp5 ecm files so at least you can change them later if you ever get efi live yourself

leaking transmission cooler lines

and the turbo mouthpiece on the LLY is restrictive, but can be replaced with an LBZ unit which helps quite a bit

Seems like a fair swap to me... The LLY is a great motor!
