6.0L in my S10 I just picked up a 2000 6.0L to swap into my 86 S10 and I have a few questions.
1. Can I use the motor mounts from S&P? Will I have to use them with V8 conversion mounts? Or will I have to fabricate mounts?
2. Will the truck oil pan clear the crossmember? Is there another factory oil pan that will clear with no modification? If I have to get a pan that has to be modified where who has the best price?
3. Since the S10 shares front suspension with the G body would these swaps be similar? (oil pan,motor mounts)
4. Will the stock 6.0L intake clear the stock hood on my S10?
5. How hard is it to swap on a ls1 intake or cam?
6. Can I bolt up a 700 r4 and if so what is required?
7. The engine is pretty complete,but it is missing the egr valve can I just leave this off? I think I will also have to convert the fuel rails to corvette rails and regulator, is this just a bolt on?
8. What years pcm and wiring harness should I look for in the salvage yard?
If anyone knows where I can find pics of this type of swap that would be helpfull.
