LML bottom end

[Hawk 40]

Does anyone know if I can put LBZ heads/injectors, fuel components, computer and wiring on LML short blocks?

Yeah it works. Short blocks are pretty much the same except the oil feed for the stock turbo is moved. The LML back cover is different too but you can use the LBZ back cover.

I'm going to attempt the same thing but I'm using an LGH and LBZ top end.

No issues with the cam sensor?

I would imagine you'd have to swap the front cover and possibly the reluctor assembly, too.

I believe JNeil did this several years ago. He had a thread on it.

Several? How many years has the lml been out lol

 

[Big Chris]

It had to have been in 11 or 12. Couple or few may have been a better way to put it lol

Surprisingly, five. There's more LMLs than LB7s now. Who'd a thunk that?



I'd forgotten about jneal's build.

Looks like it's time to start swapping out parts. I need the LBZ components up top because the LML's are too limited on stand alone set ups needed for marine use. What about the stock LML turbo, I should be able to keep that right?

More years its been out or more trucks built within those years?

That I am not sure of. You would want to contact vendors MarkBroviak or YellowChevy and ask them, as they know much about the different Dmax turbos.



Oregon, years. I dont think there's any way to find out totals sold.

Really sucks that the computer is so complex with the LML

 

[duratothemax]

Turbo's will interchange just fine. Im not 100% sure if you can use the same vane position sensor though, or if you'll need to swap to an LBZ vane position sensor.
