just seen on Instagram that someone has successfully put a l5p in what it appears to be a lmm series platform truck (07.5).

It's running and looks like it rips., They are heading to the Dyno shortly with it. Someone know this guy, if so tell him to join this forum cause I'm super interested in it

He has an lbz but based on the other thread we have here, it should be fairly straight forward to swap the whole thing in and use lbz electronics

I have been trying to track him down on Facebook and get him on here. Give us some details on the swap. I thought it was lbz too, but on his Instagram he said it was a 07.5 truck. But it looks like like a classic to me as well. I want to know if he is using lbz stuff or all the actual denso fuel system.

he would have to use the L5P fuel system, the LBZ stuff wont work in L5P heads. looks like he put the LBZ alt on, LBZ a/c compressor and from there i would say its a matter of making the rest of the sensors work. only thing im curious on is how the crank sensor worked out being they are on the back and different tooth count.

I messaged him on Instagram and told him to get over here. We have lots of questions. Hopefully he chimes in soon

And a lbz factory injector harness plug will plug right into a l5p injector ?

Now dont go thinking you can just drop in an l5p hook up the electronics and turn the key. Not going to happen. To do this it requires complete disassembly of the engine to fire the injectors among a fist full of other challenges.
I am in the process of my second L5Z swap. This one is to be the ZF6 edition. Looking for mentors, sponsors

Do you put a LBZ-style tone ring on the front of the crank? Does the LBZ front cover fit?

Pretty sweet setup!

No . It's all different l5p vs previous years. The only way to do that is how banks is currently doing it cummins style with the notched fluid dampr.

Love the build. Couple years back I saw Banks LBZ/LMM to L5P setup on a shop tour. Never noticed the reluctor ring, but is it the crank tooth difference only, or cam also? Wonder if we could change the pulse count in the ECM with a cax file easier..

Been dying to drop an l5P one in a boat, soon as I finish the one I'm wrapping up now.
