Re: Is the LS Right for my Project?

Having done several swaps with adapter plates, I can say it isnt cheap to do some of them..that's why unless your really set on a certain combination, youd be money ahead to get a engine trans combo already assembled..
If the LS is what you want, I'd go with at least a 6.0 and 4l80 ...min...
The 4l80 has a od..which trying to see your current trans numbers in your pic, you may only have a 1.00 final trans ratio..
I'd get it running and stick with the axle you have at 1st...see how the ratios do with the od...at least it would let you know how your current ratio will be.
