Parts list for LB7 to LLY heads

[07keo02]

I'm considering gathering the parts over time for putting LLY heads on my 02 LB7. I want to maintain the IHI turbo and just run the LLY heads and fuel system. Looking for help to build a complete parts list to judge the cost. So far:

-Complete LLY heads
-Set of LLY injectors
-High Pressure lines
-Return lines
-LLY ECM
-LLY engine harness
-Head gasket/stud kit
-BT diesel harness conversion service

Probably missing some stuff.......

Sounded good in my head but I think I would be better to just pick up a motor. All the individual parts add up fast.

On the 01 and 02, I think you just need to change the injector pigtails, you can use all your lb7 electronics.

From what I understand the tuning that route is a nightmare. If I go with BT Diesels harness and ecm upgrade I can run the LLY ECM plug and play.

Some stuff need rescaled, but a member here made a file base. It also will save to part hunting and money.

You need an lly body harness for the ecm and tcm.
Nsbu switch for an lly (1 plug)
cam and crank sensors

Bonomax did a writeup showing the entire swap the right way and listed every part needed.

Using the harness From BT diesel I wouldn't think I would need a body harness or NSBU (Ben please correct me if I'm wrong). I have read bonomax's write up but again, with the harness I see it being about as simple as any other way.

I have a possible opportunity to get a complete 2006 lly motor with harness. Would this work with my 5 speed since this would have been a 6 speed Allison motor?

Picked up the motor today but now he told me it was an 05. Anything I can quickly look at to identify whether it is an early or late LLY?

FICM on pass side valve cover = LLY
No FICM = LBZ

Russ, thanks for all your help so far. I failed to mention the old owner kept the electronics etc so I need to find out a different way. Something changed with the intake manifold right? This motor Is a long block, turbo, cp3, intake manifold. It is missing the accessories, hp lines, driver side fuel rail, and driver side upper and lower valve covers. I can post better pics but still got to get it out of the truck tonight.

Thanks!

Can anyone confirm for sure if I can use the LB7 rocker assemblies on the LLY? The motor is missing them on the driver s side.

Will I be able to keep my LB7 original TCM for this swap?
