right now everything im doing is pretty much to get it up and running, then ill begin to buy parts to help me tweak the motor a bit, i understand what your saying and have looked into tho, btw, how hard were the swaps? and will I be fine using the harness that came with it? if its of any help to us my dad is an electriciain, a very good one at that, so im hoping we can get it running with what we have for now

The swaps were pretty straight forward....assuming you've never done a hybrid swap before it'll take you about 80-100hrs of solid work to get it up and running and looking presentable (40+hrs of this will be on the wiring...I'm NOT kidding). To make the harnesses work without buying a new one is a BIG job....you've got to cut and splice over 200 wires to get everything to work right in the S-10 (Which is why I REALLY recommend a Speartech harness...it turned 40+ hours into less than 2), the JTR manual (www.jagsthatrun.com) and the patience of a saint is ABLSOLUTLY necessary to getting the wiring right without an aftermarket harness.

well, ill see what we can do, if it comes down to being a HUGE pain to us, yea we will def do a new harness, as far as fitting it in and such, hoping you did truck motors, could you use the stock accessories? im not sure if its any different but my motor is from a van, and I think because of that has a different oil pan, and possibley smaller accessories? will they fit?

Most that do this swap use '97 Corvette accessories and brackets...it appears they fit the best
I'm really not trying to make this sound like a nightmare swap....a long as you have all the info and the right parts it's a pretty easy swap

hey man like i said i used all Fbody accesories on my LQ9 and my injectors are SVOs and my harness plugs are off a fbody or you could find them on a 2.2 s10 maybe even a 4.3 but i havent look at one of those
