I just picked up this LS/4L60E combo to install in my Jeep over the winter. This was part of my original plan when I rebuilt my Jeep but the budget forced me to stay with my 6 cylinder at the time. I did swap in an AX-15 and installed a Howell injection system that I got for a good deal but I am a horsepower guy and it just never fit the bill for my Jeep. I know a lot of people on here have done this swap so I may have questions as I move along. I am quite well read up on the swap and it doesn't look all that difficult to me but the little odds and ends and small tricks are things you don't know about until you need to. I am pretty excited and will be buying the rest of the swap parts over the next month or so to be ready for change. I plan to remove the old motor after I get everything I think I need so I have plenty of room to rework the fuel lines and wiring. Right now I am torn on converting the stock ECU and harness or just dropping the cash in the Holley Terminator X Max system which might save me money down the road when I do upgrades. It isn't cheep but is could be in the long term. My exhaust is already 2.5 inch and will suffice for the stock LS motor after I tie it in.
So my first question for anyone who knows. Advance adapters sell their kit to tie in the dana 300 and they use a conversion shaft at the transfer case while Novak changes out the output shaft of the transmission. I am incline to use Advance Adapters so because if it breaks it will be easier to pull just the transfer case out for repairs. Which kit is stronger?
