Anywho I've the idea brewing in the back of my head about an LS1 in this

Its not an immediately pressing matter, just looking to gather information on going about this.

And I see this thread saying "this place is dying", I can hang around here, shit...If you guys want to talk PC parts I'll go all day, guns not so much but I'm still reasonably compentent

 

[kewldude007]

If you want to talk like he does I can, but it will be nowhere the extent to which my dad is capable of

What's up Baby Postban? I seem to recall you hitting the tannerite targets and blowing up some pallets that time we all went shooting at Beau's a while back.

Couldn't you get a Colorado with a 5.3? Just get all of the 5.3 parts/harness/computer but use a 5.7 longblock. This swap should be much simpler than the one I did back in 2004.

What's up?
currently working down the hall where my dad does at Henkel in the prototype lab

yep I'm the "tannerite kid"

It does make alot of sense, the v8 Colorado is rather rare but I assume that thousands of others have done it [swap] so there must be a plethora of info out there.

Welcome... Enjoy your stay... You're very lucky to have a dad with that much weapons knowledge... Use it... You won't regret learning it when he's not around...

I found it hard as fuck to sneak an extra car into the garage. Much easier with guns.

Probably need a trans/transfer case too? Don't know anything about chevy stuff. Sounds like major surgery.

#5 is a PRO, #6 is an ACO, both aimpoints

Cheaper and easier to just sell it and buy a V8 truck.

Nice... Happy with it? Was thinking about it but on the fence...

Both are great, would buy again. ACO has one year constant on battery life, PRO is 3yr
