Re: Why do I want an LS motor?

I'll tell you what I did on my nephew's truck.

5.3/4L60E/ NP241 from a 91 Sub. ( VSS built in ) Used a 91 Sub/Blazer dash cluster that has the elec speedo already. Looks stock ( not 73-80 stock but close )

I was able to find a rear drive shaft that would work, but he had to shorten the front. The NP208/241 Linkage is the same for what thats worth.

If you want to run OD some day, I would do it all at once, one and done. But that is just me, there is something to be said for doing just the enigne, your going to see improved mpg, and more Smiles Per Gallon over the engine you have now.

Nephew's truck sits on 35's 4" of lift and he see's 16-17 just running around. It made it a nice truck. And its actually a pretty quick truck with the 4.10's in it.
