you'll need a simple fuel pump because no provision for mechanical pump on the LS and maybe a regulator and I'd run a 750 Holley

Oh man an immediate response, thank you chevydillan for that. Tomorrow I'll start doing that research. Have you done this kind of swap I'm doing? And my c10 is a non a/c truck.

[Chevydillan]

I just finished a swap into a 97 truck. No a/c will make things a little easier. I'd say run a truck accessory drive set up as they are easier to find and cheaper when you do.

Okay, thanks man your a saint and a scholar. I will be in touch with you through this thread if it's okay. Everyone else is welcome to do so as well a course. Dillan what about a carb to run with that and the msd timing and curve with the pills? Is that something to get? And I saw the msd box you posted but what about the male connectors, I should say I do not have any wiring for the engine if that matters. Or is it a matter of just tuning the carb with that msd ign. Control box?

Looks like it comes with the harness
For a carb is go with something like this. I'm sure some will say 750 is to big but I think this would work great.
Of course I don't know your goals with the truck. I'm just going off the hot cammed ls1.

[Steve'84in]

Okay, nice. My goal Dillon, is to have a nice street truck not a cruiser, I don't want as a dd, and def. not a track day truck, so I'd say with what the engine has is enough I think it may be putting down between 400-450 I hope, I'll have to wait to see on dyno when after I build. But that is the hp range I would hope to get. I just hope with the info I get for you and anyone else can look at this thread and say I'm new but this is exactly what I am looking for. Great info here Dillan. Once again man thx for taking time out of your day to help a green horn like me.

why are you going carb? is it because your used to carbs and afraid of FI? if so, so was i. but after doing the swap and learning about fuel injection, its honestly the way to go. WAAAAYYY more benefits over carb... and if your motor is already set up for fuel injection, just run with it and learn it. especially since carbs are being "phased out" most especially if its a daily. if your an old school carb tuner/tinkerer for racing, then cool. but daily or new, just stick with the pcm. get a scanner and your life will be much simpler. just my two cents...
