Default Xtreme going LS!

Good morning all,

I have a 2000 s10 xtreme with 46,000 original miles on it that I plan to LS swap in about a year or so, and I have heard this is one of the best places to learn about these motors and decided to sign up. It will be a budget build and what I have in mind it:

Start with a LM7 5.3
ls1/ls6 intake if I can find a good deal
6.0 or LS1/ heads or better depending if I can find a decent set used for a good price
comp cam of some sort
H3 pan

Those are what I know I'm doing so far, hopefully you guys can help me with the rest! haha

Here is a pic for reference:



Can't wait to get this thing moving!
