62 C20 - LS Swap

[sluggy]

Just wondering if anyone has done a LS swap into a 60 - 62 truck ?

I have an LS3 and 6L80 trans, I havent had a chance to measure, but was wondering if this will work ok / fit with the torsion bar front suspension ?

I have a donor 78 front end, but I am keen on keeping the stock front end if it will work.

there's a couple of links at the beginning of this tread that may be of help..

I posted a similar question a while back but never received a response. Searched the LSX stuff but found nothing pertaining to 60-62 torsion bar front end LS swaps. I'm seriously considering an L33 5.3/4l60 swap in the spring.
