LS7 Swap into an FRC
It has come time to make a serious decision.
My friend is completely gutting the LS7 longblock (30K miles) from his C6Z and replacing it with an ERL forged block. He'd like to see the LS7 go into my FRC. We'd be doing the swap in a home garage. Were parking the cars next to each other and transplanting everything.
I know Ligenfelter makes a module to convert the crank and cam sensor to the C5 PCM as well as a battery relocation kit for the dry sump.
My question for the few that have done this at home. Will the car start and run on the c5 ECU with Ligenfelter box after the swap, or will it need a professional tune just to crank over?
Trying to get all my ducks in row.
