Price for ls swap

[M.chap]

Hey everyone I’m new here. My name is Marcos and I was just wondering how much it costed to do a full ls swap? And what tranny should I put in it? It’s currently a auto and would like to try to keep it auto but if it’s better to manual swap I’m open to that idea as well. Thanks

I know at least one member here did it. Hopefully, they will come along and be able to give you the details.

It will cost as much as you want it to.

You can get lucky and buy a wreck for $500 and switch everything over than then aside from a radiator and nickle/dime stuff you need exhaust and driveshaft(s) you are done.

Or you can get a crate engine, new wiring/computers, new trans (and t-case if needed) plus radiator and driveshaft(s)

Most do a completely random combination of the two with V8 swaps... making it really hard to estimate.

I think your truck has an electronic dash (speedo is driven by the tone ring in rear diff after '95 I know) so you will probably need to figure out aftermarket gauges and do some wiring too.

The only LS swap I know of on here is also running a turbo.
