Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
looks killer in there. them headers look sweet. who did the wire harness? looks nice and clean. I'm def doing an LS swap in my next truck after I finish up this one. One thing I hate with the IFS and racks as opposed to the s10's are the steering linkage. Looks like you should have straight shot to that pump correct?

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Thanks guys. The headers are stainless s10 swap headers from ebay. The wire harness was a stock truck harness that I sent off to lsx-harness.com to have emissions removed and have the computer flashed. They also put my car injectors on and made it 3 wire operational. Set it up with a couple relays and fuse panel. All I have to supply to the harness is power, ground, and ignition.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Looks awesome. Wait till you drive it then you will really be glad you made the swap. The LS throttle response is amazing and also feels like it has twice the power over a carbed 350. I just pulled an old wore out 350 carb setup from my suburban and swapped in a 5.3 with a 4l60e trans. What a huge difference. Not to mention the fuel economy should increase as well.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
To use the car intake you gotta have the intake of course, need fuel injectors and rails from a car. Need an idler pulley relocator from dirty dingo. For driveby wire throttle you need a car water pump and dirty dingo water pump spacers. The plugs on the injectors from the harness are different. You can get adapters or buy the right connector and splice it on.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
So far so good. Only issue I had that was not for seen was the power steering pulley. It hit my steering box pretty bad. Had to order Dirtydingo.com smaller diameter pulley. I have sent them a lot of dough haha. I will post pictures of the pulleys once I get the brackets back from powder coating.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Looks great. I like how the firewall looks with rhino liner applied to it.
I also like how you took your time to hide wires and the computer. Marc

That looks great. I'll have to order that pulley when I order my waterpump spacers from Dirty Dingo.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Got the motor running!!
Will run a lot smoother when i get the exhaust on it and 02 sensors in. Just a heads up for anyone doing an ls swap with used injectors. Depending on how long the injectors have sat up. I had to boil mine on the stove for 2-3 minutes to get them to work. Seems to be a common problem. Anyhow. Video below of the motor and gauges First start on my LS swapped 1950 Chevrolet: https://youtu.be/P-mUDeJ9RpI Dakota digital VHX gauges for 47-54 Chevrolet.: https://youtu.be/arNWmdmaWjA

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Layedout, looking sweet! Would you happen to have any pics of your tranny crossmember? I need to either fabricate or find one that will work on the LS/4l60.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
I took a piece of 2x2 and welded tabs to the frame to bolt thru.

Re: You guessed it, 1950 s10 swap.
Beautiful, thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for. The cross member location is right at that point where the frame curves out and down so there are a few things going on in the same spot.
