Re: 1952 Chevrolet 3100 on s10 frame with LSX- build thread

Looking really cool with the matte finish, I have done a few LS installs myself. I am working on a 38 chevy now that a 5.3 is going in and I will be using one for my project "Orangepeel" This will be #4 for me and you can't beat the drivability of these motors.

That is what I'm going for. This truck should be pretty light also so I'm hoping for a truck that I cruise all day long with no over heating, cool air, comfortable to drive and still has power

They can't be beat really..
The 5.3 I put in a customers 49 Dodge truck gets almost 28 MPG on the highway!!
Looking forward to the rest of your build.

Absolutely bad ass man. What did you do for your core support (is it home made) and mounting of front sheet metal? How high are your cab mounts above the frame?

A good crossthread is better than Loctite any day.

Life is not about what you have, but who you have to share it with.

For the core support i used some of the sides of the factory 52 part, and then I made the rest. I made l shaped tabs that I welded nuts to for the frame mounting part. The fenders still bolt to the core support part that I made and I did keep the factory hood latch.

Really nice finishes - love that seat and the door panels!!!!

Are you going to black out the running boards too or rhino cover them or?

Nice job!
