Buyer questions

Common questions about this part

Does this engine have AFM (cylinder deactivation)? +
Yes, the LV3 includes Active Fuel Management. Every AFM-equipped unit in our inventory is compression-tested across all 6 cylinders and scoped for lifter clearance. If you want AFM permanently disabled, mention this when you order and we'll include a tune recommendation.
Will it bolt up to my 6L80 transmission? +
Yes — the LV3 uses the Gen V LS bellhousing pattern, identical to LM7, LH8, LV1, LC9, L83, and L86. It bolts directly to 4L60E, 4L65E, 4L70E, 4L80E, 6L80, 6L90, and 8L90 with no adapter.
Are the timing chain and lifters new or used? +
Used (this is a complete used engine). Both have passed our inspection. If you want a fresh timing set or new lifters installed before shipping, we offer this as a paid upgrade — ask during the photo approval step.
Do you provide install support? +
Yes. Once you receive your engine, our techs are available by phone for install questions. We don't perform the install ourselves, but most of our buyers are professional shops or experienced DIYers.
What if it doesn't fit when I get it? +
We confirm fitment from your VIN before shipping, so this is rare. If it does happen, we cover return freight and refund or replace. Send us photos of the issue within 30 days.
