Can I replace my 3.0 LFW engine with a LF1 / LLT or LFX engine?

As previous comment #8, I did a swap of a LFX to LFX in my nephews 2012 S2 Thunder Ute, [with my nephew]
Used the Existing Loom, and it fired up ok.

You just swap them.
Use your ECM.

As long as it’s a LFX to LFX it will be fine, I changed my LLT, ASN to a LLT, BR9 so it’ll work,

hey guys,

I need to replace the 3.0 LFW engine in my 2011 VE Berlina sportswagon.

Do I need to replace it with another LFW engine?

or will either the 3.0 LF1, The 3.6 LLT, or the 3.6 LFX engines fit?

Cheers
Hi I just replaced a vf 3.0ltr lfw and put in a lfx no probl
ems everything bolted straight up even started and ran on the lfw map

How do you get fuel
Pressure up to run the direct injection?

It would be nice to hear from somebody who has actually done an LLT to LFX swap rather than people who say I've never done it but.....
