Short Block swap Hey everybody I'm lost in a sea of genius on this site. New to working on cars and recently picked up a 2000 S10 with an LS1 swap already done. the bottom end is fine for now but I was wondering what all needs to be done when swapping short blocks. I know there are some sensors and such but as far as modifications to wiring or anything like that? I'm specifically thinking about LQ4/9.

would really need more information.. but basically it is a one for one swap.. some minor area depending on what you currently have and what you are going to.. You have to give more info on a question like this.
A few area depending on what year (from / to) or Gen III, IV or V.
Knock sensors
Reluctor wheel 24x or 58x
Crank Sensor
Cam Sensor
ECT Sensor
Sugguest you do some Research/Reading before starting to ask General Question that cannot be answered without someone asking you more questions.

Both are Gen III engine.. should match up with most if not all sensors. Just swap over what you currently have and it is just a short/long block swap..
Will have to drill/tap for the third Alternator mounting bolt for an Iron Block as the F-Body Accessories doesn't have it drilled and tapped.
