| Here are a few pictures of the engine and various parts associated with my LS1 engine swap into my S10. Enjoy |

 |
| This is a picture of how much clearance I have from the bottom of the pan to the bottom of the windage tray and the pickup tube |
| Top picture of Playdough inprints of modified 5.3 truck oilpan, looks to be prenty of room |
| Side picture of the 2" removed from the sump of the 5.3 oilpan to allow more ground clearance on the S10 |
| Picture of a 97-98 C5 fuel rail. Unlike the 99+ C5 and 98+ fbody ones this unit has the fuel pressure regulator integrated into it, a must if using stock style S10 fuel system |
 |

 |
| 5.7 L all aluminum LS1 |
 |
| Picture of the final version of the frame modications |

| Another pic of the frame |

| Third picture of the frame |
 |
| Picture of front of engine in truck |
 |
| Picture of the clearance between the stock 4.3 radiator and the waterpump. As you can see I'm gonna have to modify the radiator core support to get room for the cooling fans and hoses |
 |
| The can in the picture is only about 2" tall, and that pulley isn't the closest part as you can see |
 |
| Good news for you guys that have done the T56 swap to the V6, the same hole in the floor works with the LS1 T56. I added a C5 shift knob for alittle flare. |
 |
| I'm having a clearance problem with the coil packs, the rear of the driver's side will not clear the brake booster. I'm using 5.3 heads with the 99+ centerbolt valvecovers |
 |
| Here is a picture of the passenger side valve cover without the coilpacks obviously not gonna work eithor |
 |
| I used a 99ish Chevrolet Malibu brake booster and just welded the S10 brake rod onto it. The booster bolted to the firewall with no modifications and the S10 Master cylinder bolted up with no problems |
 |
| Picture of the modified AC box, I had to cut quite a bit out of it to make the coil packs and plug wiires clear. I filled it with plexiglass and used a plastic epoxy. Not perfect but it will do the job |
 |
 |
| This is the custom driveshaft I had made by a shop here in Frederick MD, also this is the driveshaft loop I used. Worked out real good available from Speed Unlimited for about $35 |
| This is the radiator, and cooling fans in place. Not much room at all in there. I used a Be Cool flexable hose. On the other side just used a regular rubber hose because the Becool couldn't flex as far as it had to go. |

 |
| These two pictures here show the underside of the truck and how I ran the fuel system for the LS1. The S10 fuel tank uses a very similar sending unit to the fbody so an aftermarket pump for a fbody will go in the S10 sending unit. I just used 6 series JIC male compression fittings on my steel fuel lines and used some braided 6 AN line for where the fuel lines may have to flex. The JIC fittings are the same as AN fittings just they are steel and actually intended for hydralics but it's exactly the same design. The three lines are the fuel feeder, fuel return, and the EVAP canister (trying to keep it emissions leagal) |

| Here are a few pictures of the LS1 swap headers that I had to have fabricated for my swap. People say the 98-99 fbody manifolds will fit with modificaiton, but I figured it was better to put on headers. The headers are 1 5/8 primaries with 2 1/2 collectors. |
