The LS Swap Craze
As of 2019, it is no secret that auto enthusiast are swapping GM LS-Series motors into everything from Nissan 240SXs to Ford Fox Body Mustangs. During our time frequenting numerous car shows, we have seen LS motors stuffed into just about any make vehicle one could imagine.
SO WHY IS THE LS PLATFORM SUCH A PREFERRED ENGINE FOR A SWAP?
There are two things about the LS series that make them a no brainer choice for a swap project.
FIRST: There was an abundance of 5.3L (LM7s) that were installed in nearly all GM/CHEVY Trucks and SUVs until 2006. Visit any salvage yard and you will clearly see by far that there is no shortage of these motors available.
SECOND: Being that they were produced in such high quantities, the cost of these motors is very affordable which is right up your Average Joe’s alley. The price on securing a motor, transmission, wire harness & ECU can be as little as $1750 depending on where it is purchased from with less than 125k on the clock.
THE COMPACT SIZE OF THE LS HELPS IT FIT IN NEARLY ANY ENGINE BAY.
Additional considerations include light weight and compact size which both help immensely with performance applications. Being that it is a push rod motor (unlike Ford’s overhead cam modular architecture) General Motors was able to keep the overall size down of the LS-Series motors considerably by comparison. This Y-Block format allows these engines to slip comfortable inside the engine bay of a Nissan 300z with a stock looking appearance.
When it comes to power upgrade potential, the LS platform delivers. With naturally free flowing heads, they respond really well to camshaft upgrades.
- 6 Bolt Main bottom end (Very Strong!!!)
- High Flowing Heads (As Much as 300cfm on stock heads)
- Modular Architecture (Parts swappable on multiple models)
- Advanced Metallurgy (Allows for Much Higher Mileage Life)
- Huge aftermarket support from respectable brands and manufactures

NEW TECHNOLOGY COMBINED WITH OLD COMPONENTS
Though the original fueling system of the LS is Electronic Fuel Injections (EFI) the aftermarket world have developed replacement intakes that allow for the use of carburetors, another bonus for the nostalgic enthusiast who seek a modern engine with old-school fuel delivery.
There was a time in the industry not too long ago, when it seemed that the high fashion world was using plus size models as a headline-grabbing gimmick see the groundbreaking Italian Vogue cover featuring Tara Lynn, Candice Huffine, and Robyn Lawley in June 2016.long ago, when it seemed that the high fashion world was.

The most beautiful people we have known are those:

To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant right to find fault pleasure?
On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee,take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes.
