Re: Motor swap help...

Cost, longevity, power and fuel efficiency and the costs and other changes associated with each swap are my considerations. My thoughts are 5.9 Cummins, 4bt cummins or a ls swap like a 5.3. I do a lot of of camping, hunting and want to be able too have a capable towing rig. And daily driver to haul the family around. I'd just much rather put the money back into this old girl rather than buying a new truck. Any information or experience would be greatly appreciated. I'm just getting really close to diving head first into this truck. And the gears in my head are spinning out of control with the possibilities. Just need a little help figuring things out.


Here is the LS Swaps forum:

Happy reading…... Let us know what you decide.
