Anyone know all that is involved to put the LS1-based motors into an S10 ??, I have done 3 pre-'96 small-block S-10 swaps before and they're pretty straight-forward....as long as you have all the S-10 specific swap parts (motor mounts, C3 Vette radiator, headers, etc...)

I was GIVEN a totally straight '86 S-10 (2.8 V6, clean interior, spotless paint, new brakes, no broken galss...hell, the thing looks amost new except for the blown tranny).......I figure all it really needs is a V8 and 4-speed auto to be perfect again, and since I HATE carbs I figure I'll go fuel-injected.....what better way to go fuel-injected than to use the best factory system available (and....of course....the motor that goes along with the fuel-injection system)

I know I can get info from www.s10v8.com but it's a pay site and unless there is ALOT of good info there I'll just keep searching until I find what I need

TIA

i dont have any good info for you but i think it would be a cool project. soo many cool options for projects out there, there is just one thing all of my dream projects have in common and that is some kind of ls1 in them.

THey are lt1 and earlier based.

And I have Heard that Lee's High tech down in florida has done ls1 swaps into s-10's

 

Its possible. There is a local guy here iwth a LS1 in a 98 ZR2 4x4. That thing is bad.....BDS lift, 33's. I will see if I can track him down and get some info from him.

 

I think jagsthatrun have some info on the ls1 in a s10 in their book but not on the website.
