‘How To Swap GM LS Series Engines Into Almost Anything’ Book: eBay Find

When the fifth-generation 1997 Corvette was unleashed, no one could have predicted the effect its new LS1 V8 engine would have on the aftermarket and hot-rodding community. The LS1 was the first of a new generation of compact and powerful LS engines which packed ample performance and great efficiency into a relatively small package. As more variations of the LS engines trickled out, more and more performance enthusiasts began to gravitate towards them, dropping them in almost any hot rod, muscle car and sports car they could fit it in, which as it turns out, is quite a lot.

Some mechanics have become quite well versed in dropping the LS V8 in the engine bay of cars which were never meant to house an eight-cylinder engine, like the Mazda Miata. But for those which may be new to the practice, there is the “How to Swap GM LS-Series Engines into Almost Anything” book, which as you may have guessed, will teach you how to swap a GM LS-series engine into almost anything.
