Re: Ls swap donor...what's needed?
I have an 01 1500 sitting in my driveway for the same purpose and it has been there for a year and 4 months, my wife is not impressed. I am very close to getting the engine swap part of the project completed, I have to install the wiring loom I cleaned up on my own and run fuel lines and I should be done with the donor truck.
From the donor truck I have used the engine and trans, the power steering cooler, trans cooler, trans lines, wiring harness for the engine, the fuse block. I am going to try and use the in cab section of the wiring for the cruise, cluster, & obdII. I also used the radiator air intake, coolant overflow, computer mount, cruise control box off the fire wall, and throttle cable. Before I junk the truck I am going to snag the front seats to retrofit and I am going to see if the carpet will fit (I have a high hump). Other things to consider are maybe the fuel door (if you plan to put the tank out back) and the cruise switch from the turn indicator if you are going to install cruise.
good luck
