Very, very nice. As the other post said, looks like a factory install. Something GM should have offered.
Were you able to unload the stock drivetrain to recover some of cost, 'cause it looks like you started with a brand new truck? What AC compressor is that- looks different than others I've seen (factory Colorado).
You know it's a good swap when 99% of the public would think you bought the truck that way.
Good job. How's she run?

How hard was it to physically put the motor in? Did you have to do any notching/hammering of things to make clearance?
Did you use the current performance wiring harness? How was it to install to the exiting wiring block? What had to be modified to make it work?
What PCM are you using the LS2 or the Coly or both?
How was the trans tunnel with the new trans? Did you have to make a new crossmember? New driveshaft?
Any problems with frame flex that you can tell?
What about the radiator? Is it the stock Coly? Does it seem to be big enough to keep the LS motor cool?
Does it have A/C? and does it work?
Thanks!
