[black2002ls]

I started a thread in the general discussion forum about 3 months ago, starting a new job. Well things have gotten rolling for me and I've started acquiring parts for my motor build. Here is the short of it. I have a 2003 S-10 Regular cab. Plans are for, in the beginning, a stock LSx build based off of a bored 5.3L iron block, and a T-56. Once that is complete and installed, I'll begin working the suspension, especially in the rear, I'm thinking 4 link build around a 12 bolt. Interior wise, I'm thinking corvette buckets and a custom console, after market guages worked into the stock location. Upgrading the stereo to a Nav/Onstar factory unit (that was my reason for hunting a 2003 model truck, it has the class 2 data system). Exterior I plan to freshen up the paint, not sure if I will keep it solid black or do some sort of two tone. For the wheels Chrome c6's or c6 z06's. Keeping the body mostly stock, custom roll pan with center exit exhaust to mimic the SS or Corvette style and a billet grille and cowl hood. Stage 2 will be an all out twin turbo build. I'll try and locate the pictures of the stock truck and will begin uploading pictures of the engine components as they come in. I'm hunting deals so it is slow going. I found the block for $150 locally.
