RE:GM LQ9 6.0 Engine - C4 Swap?

Be careful with using the LQ9.

The EPA has allowed for engine swaps using car engines, but it's against the regs to use a truck engine.

And you live in OC, NY, where the state is enacting CA style emissions. I do not know your rolling drop off point... but I would be sure this is done once the 20 year mark (if that is it) is done.

I know the rule is stupid... but that's the rule. What really bugs me is that it isn't the engine that makes it a truck engine - but the electronics. If you were to put Camaro controls on it, it would run like a camaro (for the most part).

Silly, really.
