i feel dumb now lol first time with a truck. 91 s10 4.3 2wd not having a/c no p/s
i saw jegs has most of the swap on it, but from pulling engines of of my mustang i know the swap kit doesnt tell you all the little shit that goes wrong
 
stockish motor you can use the brackets and accessories from the 4.3 even the radiator, there are set back mounts made for the motor, simple swap if you are handy, whats wrong with the 4.3?
 
nothing i just have some buddies in kentucky(where im living until september) who always have lt1 and ls1 parts. Ive had everything from mustangs camaros and rx7s now i want build a drag truck maybe 500whp including nitrous
 
Very easy to do. If you want to buy a kit mtr mounts- trans mount- headers etc. Go to s10racer.com and look in project section.
