Alright i tried it and all i still see is sbc swap mounts/ adapters.
I did call summit and they said they have the adapters and it is possible. I just want to confirm from someone that has done the swap. I can only find swaps from the 4.3 4wd to ls but not 2.8 4wd to ls.
click on the link, it comes up with all of your ls motor conversion kit parts.
did you notice the part where it said LS1???
ok did a little thinking here. using the 2.8 mounts and ls adapters, will work. I dont what the hell i was thinking.
anyone know about oil pan clearance or headers.
I want to do a 5.3 with a 60e
judging from the pics on the site for 4wd headers they look like old sbc headers
Man I hate to sound like a deusch cause this DOES belong here but I think all your questions will be answered easier and faster on s10v8.com. - Check the forum
For some reason there isnt much info on s10 swaps on this site. Mostly just full size stuff. If you find the answer you should post it on here so that will change.
s10forum.com they have an LSX section and as far as the AWD part its been done many times. think of the sy/ty lsx conversion. many have 6.0/80e/AWD/turbo. not impossible but not cheap either. very very expensive. but a standard lsx swap isnt bad. hope this helps. gary
yeah i have searched and really cant find anything on s10forum but then again i did a quick search.
I have changed directions somewhat though. I have found a 2000 s10 2wd 2.2 with a knocking engine for $350. Only downside is, its a long bed. The body and interior are perfect. I'm suppose to get it Monday. If i do, I will post pics.
Thanks for the help
What you guys think about a long bed s10 with a 5.3, th350, stalled, cammed, and sprayed
Do it. It'll be BA. IMO long beds look good slammed as low as you can go.
yes you can do it, if you dont want to keep the 4wd its easy as pie, if you want to keep it you need to hack up an oil pan to fit. its actually easier to do the swap in a 4wd with the front diff removed because any oil pan fits.
any questions pm me.
for kits go to
