Take a little time to do a search of this forum and both you guys will have your questions mostly answered, if not all of them. There is also lots of info over on S10Forum

But take the time to search and others will be much more likely to help you guys.

Good luck.

Well, the threads aren't too long, they're actually packed full of information about motor mounts, rearends, cooling issues, bracket issues, etc.

As before, I suggested S10Forum

http://www.s10forum.com/forum/f213/p...x-swap-283608/

There's exactly what you're looking for at the top of the LSX discussion forum. Many of the people on that forum also talk here.

For S-Series specific information, look to S10 Forum, for LSx specific information, look here.

Yes, that would help.

A question like "What will it take?" is WAY too general. Every swap is different, but the general information has already been documented across this forum as others.

I've been documenting my swap over on the SyTy forums including costs, sourcing parts, reasoning behind the parts, etc.

While that may not be 100% helpful to 2nd gen owners, it has some similarities.
