im looking at putting a cast 6.0 in my s10 and i was wanting to know if the block size was the same as an ls1 as in the bolt up and fitment? and i was also wanting to know if i was to buy a complete 6.0 truck motor with computer and if i put an ls2 top end on it could i continue to use the truck computer or what computer i would need? if anyone could help me out it would be great! Thanks!

Same size/bolt holes, etc...Yes.

Yeah, you can use teh truck computer, not that familiar with them, so not sure how tuneable they are (maybe the same, maybe not, again, I don't know) and maybe someone will chime in and tell you for sure teh differences in teh computer's between teh truck and the cars (maybe nothing, hell I don't know)


But, they are teh same size though..

6.0L in an S-10 w/ LS2 top end, like this?

Forget the LS2 intake, save your money, it sucks!!! Get the FAST if you can, I loved it!!!! Or an LS6 as a 2nd option.

I did have the #799 LS2 heads, those or the #243s will work nicely..

Notice I also upgraded to the"Mobil 1" oil filter cap from the old yellow truck one......

Anyways...There is a company who makes plug and play wiring harnesses, all the stock gauges will work in the truck, if your looking still. There are also oil pans and A/C systems that acan work without any notcing of the frame now.

Go here for a ton of great info:
