Re: Aftermakrket EFI or LS Swap???

A wrecked low mile truck with an LS would be ideal. My cousin just bought a 99 2wd with only 110,000 miles on it. It was wrecked in the front and both bags blown out, he only paid $1000. He plans on swapping into an S10. The truck runs and drives good.

Oh and brakes are a big issue for me. Haven't heard of the Hydra Boost Brakes, but sounds like something I should look into. (my truck doesn't stop for crap and she already has front discs)
As far as brakes, a dual chamber vacuum booster and dual master cylinder would do wonders. Most master cylinders out there are 1 1/8", but you can use a 1 1/4" from a 73-87 C20 if you need more braking.

Hey thanks! Yeah I just want more stopping power. I like knowing my vehicle can compensate(ish) for other people's bad driving
