Best LS Swap Candidate.....Help Me Pick
4 Attachment(s)
Just thought I'd get some opinions from my fellow board members!
I have a LY6 engine and a 6L80E that I have been planning to swap into my 1972 Blazer for a couple years now. I've been collecting parts to build this Blazer how I want it...... but still haven't actually started. May of last year I picked up a really clean 1967 LWB. My buddy James (K5 Addiction) keeps texting me pics of the "The Old Duffer" under construction and he's really making me want to drop the 6.0 in my Truck...... instead of my Blazer! Of course I only wish I could make my truck as sweet as his will be! http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...=532466&page=7 Feel free to check out the threads I've started .....but here's what we all really want to see........Pics of the Trucks! http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=598068 http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=643591 So what do you guys think? K5 or C10? |

I voted K5 just because I am partial. That LWB is clean and I think it's a cool story that is has the inline. I'd think you would have more fun with your new school combo in the K5 though.

that 67 shouldnt be molested. leave it stock and enjoy it.

Re: Best LS Swap Candidate.....Help Me Pick
I like the lwb but k5 has my vote for the LY6/6L80E. I put a 5.3 LC9/6L80E in my sons 70c10 LWB

I voted K-5. It just seems right... LockDoc |
Re: Best LS Swap Candidate.....Help Me Pick
Tough call. The C10 is going to be a good bit easier than a 4WD truck for the swap. But it's clean and unmolested. (Although I'm thinking it might be cool to put a 4.2 Atlas six in there to be different.)
The Blazer would be a bit more work to get everything to clear, but looks like it would be fun, and you can cruise around with the top down. |

Alright guys so far it's pretty clear the K5 is in the lead. Does the shortening the truck to a SWB sway anyone toward the C10......or make everyone sick that someone would consider chopping down such a clean truck:jdp:? Opinions welcome! Thanks, JG |
