Everything needed to do l92 swap
Hey guys,
im doing a l92(2007 Escalade 6.2)swap in my 2002 c5 z06 since the ls6 decided to throw its internals on the concrete. Car currently has an a&a kit on it as well. From a little research on here it seems like I will need to get an extension harness for the map sensor and swap reluctor wheels on the l92 to a the ls6 reluctor...has any tried using a conversion module? Also my ls6 oil pan is toast so would the l92 oil pan work or would I need a “corvette” specific oil pan?
Thanks in advance for any help

Haven't done it -- but have been thinking along similar lines. Seems to me the cam sensor and knock sensors are different, and need adaptation as well. Have not read much positive relative to the conversion modules, but as far as I've ever read changing the reluctor wheel requires the crank be out of the engine -- positioning of the new one is, of course, quite critical. Can not imagine there is any chance of anything but a C5 oil pan working.

This will help get you started, good overview.

Buddy had a ls3 swapped Fbody I got to work on and enjoy and converter box did its job. No issues. Think I remember there were early versions that did have some.

He won't need the computer or harness from the donor vehicle .
Op you will need another corvette oil pan, you will also need an intake manifold from an ls3 car. The map sensor wiring will need to be extended and the connector changed to plug into the ls3 map .
You will need to extend the cam sensor harness to reach the front cover where the l92 cam sensor is located .
Relocate the knock sensors to the side of the block and extend those harness as well or just delete them since they don't work all too well in that location anyways .
Putting the 24x reluctor on the l92 crank is definitely more reliable but costs more unless you can do it yourself.
I've seen a few lingenfelter conversion boxes fail .
Of course you will need the pcm tuned properly after the swap .

I asked because there are several ways to do this... yours is one way... the original computer and harness from the engine is another... or you could cut all that out and go aftermarket. Lou Giglottti is working on plug and play harnesses for a motec system......... he has the C6 done.. he is working on a C5 harness now... motec is probably the most expensive but its a really good system... I also personally like holleys hp and dominator systems as well as Big stuff3 .

did you have to ditch the A&A for the l92? Or did it bolt up. I’m on the verge of picking up an l92 but 587whp from a .30 bored 5.3 and a&a is stupid fun.
looking to see how this all panned out for you. I want the L92, A&A, blower cam and meth to all have a party under the hood!
