Default LS Swap on My 94 2 Door 4wd

I'm about to get started gathering parts for my LS Swap. I'm after a 5.3 and late model transmission, as well as all the other parts I'll need. I will be keeping my 4wd functional so I'll need a 4wd transmission. If anybody has any parts I'll need or can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it. Would also like to find a cam close to the Comp XR269HR if I can locate one fairly reasonable.

That's a beautiful OBS! Those 2 door Tahoe's are the bomb. Good call going with a LS swap but I recommend going straight for a 6.0.

last month we finally swapped my son's 94 RCSB lq4/4l80e

we used dirty dingo adjustable engine mounts, PSI harness with fan option & cts-v oil pan since his truck is really in the weeds worked out pretty good

swap was pretty straight forward the adjustable mounts came in handy we had to set the engine back to clear the manifold/y pipe bolts from hitting the frame

we pulled out the factory pcm and all the harness, once we got it back together we had to send 12+ to the havc & wipers, one of the relays under the hood was for his brake lights had to reconnect that. behind the glove box was the wires for the SEL, tach and speedometer

thats a nice 2door i looked high and low for a 2wd 2door last month before i bought my 04 rcsb i love those things
