They listened lets use it!
 
I asked for an LS swap forum because the information was all over and there is lots of good information on this site.

I hope it helps a lot of people thinking of putting an LS in something.

Thanks

Not a bad idea. Liz, could we make a sticky that contains links to all of the know LS swap threads/build threads? Just one thread stuck that contains links?

This is nice, It will be most helpful in assisting me with my install:D

I'm thrilled! Good idea, now I can daydream and plan in one neat little corner

A very timely topic. I have encouraged such swaps on the '88-98 forum and have thrown in the link to Street and Performance (www.hotrodlane.cc). They have put LS engines in many vehicles and even have some LS9 swap info, plus LS engines for sale....if you want prices to compare.

Sweet! I am glad we have this now. It will make it easier on everyone. A little too late for me though... I finished mine in early June. Not a show stopping job, but I stayed under budget. I figured I would be the first to post pics of my swap.

Looks like a really nice truck! Do you have a build thread?

78bronzechariot 07-16-2010 12:22 AM

Re: They listened lets use it!
 
thanks, and no, I didn't take the time to do that. I didn't really do anything that I hadn't already seen in other build threads anyway. I do have more pics, but they are on my home computer. I am on the road for work now.

I like the idea.

Re: They listened lets use it!
 
I just found this forum and have read a bunch of the threads on here. I am in the process of putting a 5.3 into an 87 4x4 Longbed truck. I read all the swaps thinking it wouldn't be too bad, but it doesn't look like many people have done 4x4's!

I am new to the truck scene, but I am pretty well versed in LS engines. I drag race and daily drive my 2006 GTO. I am building the truck to daily drive and tow the car around. It was much cheaper then buying a new truck, plus it gave me a little project to have some fun with.

Looking forward to being a part of the forum, thanks for all the info I have goten so far!

Anthony
