6.0 Malibu Wagon

6.0 Malibu Wagon..track time
a few pics of my project, 1983 malibu wagon, 2005 6.0, edelbrock cam and headers, Zex kit, 8.5" GN rear, th350, 10" converter. I had a carb kit on it last year but needed a new MSD box, I found the FI parts would be cheaper so decided to try that route. Luckily My brother does computer tuning (jay_lt4) so he did my program and cut down a factory harness.

sweet ride im doin a similar swap this summer in a grand national body i have sitting around.i was wondering if the lsx series bolted to older trannys i guess so, how about the motor mounts?

they sell conversion mounts, I used the s-10 lsx mounts.
Its winter here, I havent had it on the road yet, here it is running. With the carb it had a real loppy idle, with the FI it purrs.

Sweet!!! I have a new motivation to finish my elky swap! Are those edelbrock longtube headers? If so, did they bolt right up without mods to the s-10 motor mounts or the headers?

Nice job! I see you used the S-10 mounts. How were the oil pan clearances? Did you use the truck pan? I'm putting a 2000 5.3 in my G-body (Monte Carlo), and I think I'll use the H3 pan. A lot of S-10 parts can be used on G-bodies, so I'll bet a lot of those conversion parts will fit as well.
