Gsm Ls1 Ak Ls2 Ls3 New

In high-performance LS swaps—where modern V8 engines like the LS1, LS2, or LS3 are dropped into older chassis—traditional mechanical shift linkages often present clearance issues or a lack of precision. A Gear Select Module (GSM) is an electronic push-button shifter system designed to replace mechanical levers.

• LS1 (1997–2004) – The OG Gen III small block. 5.7L, ~350 hp. Light, cheap, huge aftermarket. Showing its age in stock form but still a swap hero.
• LS2 (2005–2007) – Gen IV, 6.0L, ~400 hp. Stronger block, better heads, 58x reluctor. The sweet spot for budget torque.
• LS3 (2008–2015) – 6.2L, ~430–436 hp. Best factory rectangle-port heads. L92/LS3 is the gold standard for NA power. Needs a matching controller.
• GSM – Likely referring to Gearstar / GSM Performance transmissions (4L70E, 4L80E, 6L80E upgrades) or a controller module. If you see “GSM” paired with “new” – think transmission controller kits to run modern LS engines in older cars.
• “AK” – Could be a typo for “LS-A” (LSX bowtie block) or “AK” as in a harness/ECU code. More likely: “AK” = Aston Martin / aftermarket key? Or just a mislabel. Most likely – someone meaning “LSX / LSA” (supercharged 6.2L).
• “New” – Usually means Gen V LT engines (LT1, LT4, LT5) – direct injection, higher compression, more complex swaps. Not backward-compatible with LS parts.
