93 S10 LS Swap

Thanks for the picture, I have about half of that clearance, but like you said I have
shorter springs and aftermarket arms, looks like the BFH will give me the space I'm
needing, for now. I see that evap cover, doesn't look GM. Any idea on release
date on this stuff, I know it's not soon enough.

A few updates from the weekend
Pic of the old 2.8
Much better look! Mock up of engine complete so time to pull it apart and start painting a few things.
Frostbite makes a LS swap radiator for these trucks in both 1st and 2nd Gen. I did modify this one by adding mounts to top and bottom and welding the inlet and outlet on instead of screw in fittings.
Maybe Frostbite will copy this and offer it as a bolt in swap radiator one day.

How about some photos not related to the engine swap. Blazer brake upgrade, still need to clean them up a little but should make an improvement in the stopping power.
uses the factory truck brake lines
new condenser installed, new evap and heater core will come soon.

Which condenser did you go with? I try to get factory replacements when possible since some parts are made cheaply these days. Can you share where you are getting the heater core and evaporator?
I spotted the evap cover with the Hooker logo too - I'll buy one as soon as they are ready.

Has this swap kit been (or will be) test fitted with a 2nd Gen S10 2WD standard cab? Also hoping the headers will be EO C.A.R.B. for California emissions (like other Blackheart headers). Looking good!
