A little about me,
I have been gone for a few years. I'm down to 1 TA. My Blue car. The engine Took a dive on me and I parked it. Life put it on hold. Kids in college loosing both parents you name it. The last few years been rough even moved back to town and lost my Shop I built Sold the big Farm it was not my thing. Now I'm settled Kids school is covered. I looking at getting my Car going. It needs a lot of TLC now. I have it setting on a trailer at my Aunt's Farm...
My Dilemma,
I'm Thinking about a LS swap There is a ton of info on the net about the subject. I'm mechanically inclined. However, I have never rebuilt a motor on my own. I feel like with the internet and the info available I can do this. Does anyone that's done this think differently? I intend to get a 5.3 and all it components from a donor vehicle. Buy a new wiring harness for this type of project. I know you can get entire kits for this. Oil pans, wiring, alternator relocation and such.
One more question,
Anyone who done this, Did you mount your shaker to the hood? I would prefer to mount mine on the motor if possible. Nothing like watching it shake going down the road. lol I have not seen anything online to do this. So I guess I would need to fabricate something to do so. Or do you know of anything?
