    It is finally time to test fire and test drive the LS in my Jeep Wrangler Tj/LJ! For those of you who are new to the channel, I am installing a 5.3L chevy engine into my 2006 Jeep Wrangler. Before I can test fire and take it for a test drive, we have to get the engine wiring set up. That means making all the essential connections on the GM computer and Jeep computer side. I am beyond excited to finally be at this point in the swap. I know we have all been waiting MONTHS to get to this point.
    The original plan was to go with a standalone harness and factory GM computer, but I decided to switch it up and go with a different ECM setup. I will be using the Holley Terminator Kit.
    I have also attached a running parts list of parts I have been using for this swap and the cost (which always varies/changes). I hope this is helpful for those of you wanting to do your own DIY Jeep LS Swap!

    It appears we have a bad injector, it’s crazy how much the audio changes over the GoPro. You can’t hear the misfire in person, but after watching this, you guys were right (there’s a misfire).

      Had the same problem. Crate LQ9 in a Toyota Land Cruiser. Purchased "genuine new OEM Delphi injectors" off of eBay. Spoiler alert... they were not OEM. Probably rejects as one stayed open and dumped fuel into cylinder 7 and when I turned it over it hydrolocked and sent the conn rod out the side of my block. Get a good set of flow tested and matched injectors. You will thank me later.

    Glas to see that you're almost there with the swap! That little 5.3 will give you more than plenty of power for that little LJ.
    I love the LS series engines. I have the 5.3 Gen 3 iron block in my '01 Suburban, and the 5.3 Gen 4 aluminum block in my '10 Sierra 1500. Both have had a misfire at one time or another. The Suburban was just a fouled spark plug, which I had replaced them all, but the Sierra was a bad lifter which had ruined the cam. It's currently tore down and being cleaned and rebuilt as we speak.

    Congrats on the test drive of your LS swap. I just completed my second LS powertrain from Novak. If you want your Cruise control to work make sure you get the correct Emulator from Novak E-TXCC. Fyi... the light on the dash for CC will no longer light up when on. Need to try a few times to know if CC is working. For the gad pedal i had to cut and weld the pedal to have the correct position when mounted.
