Engine swap question
The GM crate engine LS6 part number 17801268. Is that a direct swap into my 2002 ? How about things like ECM and other wiring? How will this engine get along with a automatic trans and 2.73 gears?

It's a direct swap; wiring is the same, PCM tuning would optimize the better heads/cam
You already have the same LS6/Z06 intake manifold
the LS6 will need the crankcase vent tube from the valley cover to the intake and you will use the LS6 driver's side valve cover(no vent tube)
If you need the swap done, my FL pricing is $1250
2.73 gears were never good at making friends, 3.42's would make the car more responsive
