Looks like you've found a good solid starting point there!

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

Ya man, hopefully in a few weeks it'll be sitting in my garage

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

$400????? You sir are a thief, that is a hell of a deal.

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

Haha...it's in pretty good shape besides the doors!!!

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

Oh and as far as I could tell the inside of the bed looks brand new

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

Sweet find...i paid 400 for mine too when i got it..except mine was running and driving lol...but still a brilliant find man. Body looks pretty solid. Will be following this one.

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

I don't think this one will be near as fast as my last one...I think more time will be put in this one

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap

Overheard during ones pilgrimage to LS.

First swap
"OMG this is so confusing, what parts do I need, where can I buy them, is this price good? How many miles, how much horsepower, wiring, wiring, WIRING?! TUning, tuners, SD, transmissions...waht?"
...
"Engine went in easy, wiring wasn't too bad, just gotta take your time. Makes really good power stock. Wow I get 19mpg? Starts every time"

Second Swap
"I wanna go with a bigger engine than last time. I'm thinking about a 6speed. 400hp isn't enough, I'm thinking FI. Cams, SD, PTVC, AFM DOD ASPCA!@@@>!!?"
"Its not hard, weekend job. Naw, wiring is just plug and play. I'm buying HP Tuners.

:)

lol u surely right about that...im already thinking about upgrading to a 6.0 and its only been about 2 months since my swap

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

I hated those things...I swapped em out for smaller chrome ones I got from my father in law. I want to get the sport mirrors for it though

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

Will be following this one!

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

I think it'll be alittle easier this time around, gonna be a fast dd

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

Nice!

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

so a little update, i went and checked on the truck today and the guy hasn't pulled the motor yet, i told him id pull the motor and tranny out for a 100 off the asking price of 400, he wasn't a fan of the idea...i tried to make a steal even better but didnt work out...but i do infact still have dibs on the truck!!!

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

a little update, i just paid for the truck, the guy will have the motor out saturday, its got a little more rust than i thought but nothing crazy still worth 400 bucks

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

You're gonna swap in one of those 8.1L LS motors!?!?

;)

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap
 

if i can find one, they are kinda tough to find around here, i know I'm going with a 6.0 or 8.1, not messing with the 4l60 again, got that in my truck and had to get it rebuilt, just seeing whats out there now

Re: the addiction....next Ls swap

I'm partial to blue lwb late 70's with LS swaps my self!
