Vz one toner
Hi everyone, I’m just after some advice, as I’ve recently swapped an LS1 into my Vz one tonner. I’ve got it all up and running, except I’m having no luck with the fuel gauge..... I swapped pretty well everything out of the VY Ute into the VZ, except for the loom that runs to the back of the Ute from the drivers side kick panel. I’ve connected the two purple wires for the fuel pump and wires for the tail lights, but I’ve had no luck figuring out which wires go to the BCM for the fuel gauge.... will my fuel sender work since it was for an alloytec, or will I need to get another one to suit the VY system? any advice would be very appreciated, Thanks!

Watch Laty’s Garage on YouTube. He did a VY one toner V8 conversion. Did a series of videos.

But why?

The only difference in LE0 motors you’d need to be mindful of is the early ones (‘04) which had different cam position sensors to all the later ones.
