    hey my 2.8 is a peppy lil fucker lmao but i cant wait to put a 5.3 in it. Just looking around to see what problems and all people may have ran into. Cool video, definitely learned a few things.

    I got a 1991 s10 for my 15 birthday a few months ago. With all red interior and original red bench seat an the first thing I thought of was LS swap . How much was the total build?

      I was able to do it for under $3k but I did all the work myself and used old parts when I could. The only parts that are expensive are the motor and trans the rest you can get over a period of time and it wont seem like you spent 3k

      @@tysmendoza5788 alternative: you can swap in a 3.4l from a v6 camaro. It bolts right in. As for not having a garage I did my ls swap the first time in a shit hole trailer under a tree. The videos are there just way back dont let not having a garage stop you. Sure you may have to do some extra stuff to protect things and you will want most if not all the swap before you start.
