im not sure if this is the right spot to post this but here it goes, i was wondering if a 2002 ls1 corvette engine will fit in a 03 sonoma, and if it would be smog legal, i have all the computers for the ls1 engine and everything it needs for the corvette to be legal, and i need to know if it would be smog legal in a sonoma also? and also would it fit in a sonoma, what would you have to do to get it to fit? thanks for any help.

 

i am thinking of doing the same thing except with a 4.8L. i know 350s will fit in them so i am sure this will work.

 

yes, it has been done before. I have no idea about smog legality though. Probably will be ok unless you are in cali

 

A strong 4.8L, if I do say so myself.

 

I have seen one before, and it looks like it was made to be in there I am pretty sure someone makes a kit, but I am not sure where to find them.

 

yea i live in cali thats what i was worring about but i think im ganna go down to the chp and talk to a reff down there and see what they say about smog or a smog tech

 

if it was a stock motor, and you swapped over all of the emissions parts I don't see why it would't be smog legal

 

I believe that you can't go backwards in years. Your vehicle is an 03, you'll need an 03 or newer engine for s smog legal swap, I believe.

 

Just stick a 500hp Stroker in her oh my god...a 6.0l would be so killer in that!

 

T&T Customs has done this several times. I have my 66 Nova there and I saw another Sonoma in the shop last week.This link will take you to the S10 project- http://www.ttcustomsinc.com/current_...chevy_s10.html
