Okay heres the deal. My brother drives a 07 nbs silverado with a 5.3. He is wanting to put an ls2 in it. How hard would that be? I heard they drop right in but i don't know. What do you guys think? What kind of options does he have to make that pig run good?
he can do that but he'll need an early version of the LS2 with the correct relucter wheel or he'll have to change it out on the crankshaft. He'll also need knock sensor and camshaft sensor extension wires to reach the new sensor locations. Other than that it will swap out.

ADD:
Tell him to look into a the magnacharger kit for the 5.3. I think that they clam almost 140hp increase over stock. I'm sure that will satisfy his thrill seeking more than another STOCK motor.
