LS swap.. LS swap… LS swap… Man, that’s being going on for roughly 25 years now! You can argue that the LS engine has taken over from where the OG Small-Block Chevy has left off, but what about the more modern, more technical, and more efficient LT? These engines have been around for over a decade themselves now, but we’re just now seeing hot-rudders take to them. The aftermarket slept on the platform, admiringly, but companies like BP Automotive have been getting involved and taking the genre to the next level.
Recently, they’ve announced their new DIY Stand Alone Factory Harness Mod Kit for those of you looking to drop the latest 5.3L or 6.2L into your project. These takes a lot of the guess work out of the process when it comes to the wring side of things.
