LS1 swap is underway
the swap from a 2001 4.3L V6 to a 2001 5.7 LS1 in a reg cab silverado is underway! :head: Wicked Speed Motorsports, www.wickedspeed.com , is doing the change..
As you can see, the V6 has been pulled. Since the pic, the bay has been cleaned out alot more and is ready for the ls1 to be stabbed. The LS! is going in with full car acessories, instead of the truck accessories, to retain the look of the engine as well.
