Stuffing a New-Era 1997-2013 GM LS V8 motor into a classic GM pick-up truck or SUV used to be an extremely complex, yet rewarding project. While performing this swap is still very rewarding, performing the project isn't quite as daunting as it once was. Nowadays, there are a number of quality products manufactured to make the LS swap go smoother with less, "trial and error". The key to a stress-free swap is finding aftermarket components that work together. Trans-Dapt Engine Swap Kits do just that.
