[QUOTE="ftoy516, post: 673654, member: 6879"] I have been looking around for some decent information on swapping a LS into an OBS Chevy Silverado....anyone one here ever done this before in this platform...and if so, do you have any tips or good resources that are creditable. I have a 92 4x4 TBI truck with a stick that i used some for a tow rig but i never pulled it far from home or pulled it that often because the motor has over 215,000 miles and i did not trust it to go far because it was DRINKING oil. A few months back it gave up the ghost, so that leads me to this debate..... I don't really want to spend money on buying a Small block crate motor in lieu of buying a LS 6.0 which has more power in stock form and will pull night and day better then the TBI motor. I don't really have a lot of money in the OBS Chevy and like most people i don't have the funds to buy an expensive truck to pull with...i guess i am working with what i have for now.... Just wondering if any of you guys have ever done this before, or know someone that has....i am trying to be realistic with ideas for this truck, i really just want it to be dependable pulling a buggy a long ways from home. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
