Default looking into a swap

I have a 98 s10. i am looking into how much of a pain it would be to put a 6.0 or a 5.3 in it with a 4l60e. Any info would be awsome.... thank you in advance. heres a pick of the truck in question. not bad for 600 bucks

S10's are pretty easy. That is a pretty good score too. Get a 6.0 if you can. Should be fun.

Welcome to the forum, too.

The first S10 I had was an extended cab, with the same paint scheme. I had a 5/6 drop on it, and loved it. I wanted to put a V8 in it, but got my silver one instead.

carshop inc and current performance wiring can make the swap really painless.
