Re: ls swaps in 1947-53 trucks
I think they are swapping in an S10 chassis and swapping an LSx in for power.
GMPP took an AD Suburban and set its body on a TrailBlazer SS chassis. The reward? LS2 motor, 4L70e trans, 9.5" 14 bolt 4.10 posi rear, 4 wheel discs, automatic ride height rear air bag sysytem, big sway bars front and rear...for one "capable" AD Suburban!

Re: ls swaps in 1947-53 trucks
The guy helping me with my swap has a 5.3 in a 5 window. (not sure of the year) I will get some pictures tonight when I go to work on mine and post them for you. I drool over it every time I go, it is a sweet truck.

Re: ls swaps in 1947-53 trucks
I went yesterday but he had that part of the shop locked up. I caught him in the middle of dinner and didn't want to hold him up too long. I will be back over there later this week putting my motor in and I will get the pics then.
