The truck is finally getting a LSx conversion. I started last night with pulling the old motor out. The TBI just wasn't cutting it anymore. I've been playing with a few different adapter plates to position the motor a little further back in the engine compartment. I actually think it is in a decent position now. Here are a few pics to get started.
Looks good Jon. You should have called me.
Don't worry jeff it will still be in and out probably about 10 more times.LOLOriginally Posted by ff_jeff

Ill have to delay your finish time with $$$ but then you will buy more go fast parts. I am going to lose either way lol. Looking good.

Looks good in there. Did you do a crank spacer, longer bolts and flat flexplate so you can continue to use your stock transmission or are you going to swap to a 300mm style LSx transmission from something late model?

The true sign of a fat kid that doesn't want to expel the extra energy to use a cherry picker... Heaven forbid you have to crank the lever a few times.
FAT A55!!!!
P.S. You made a bigger mess of the floor than I did with my motor swap... both of them put together.
