Before You Swap, Visit LS Swap Central!

Right now is the golden age of LS Swapping All the Things. They’re going in 1960s muscle cars, street rods, old trucks, and off-road buggies. Some even find their way into the engine bays of Fox-body Mustangs.

It’s not hard to figure out why. There are millions of affordable LS engines in the salvage yards waiting for a new home, and they are easy to modify for big horsepower--500 horsepower with a stone-stock long block is just some bolt-on parts away. And boy, do LS engines love-love-love turbocharging.

Doing an LS swap takes some planning. To help you with yours, we created a special LS engine page on SummitRacing.com. It’s loaded with information on LS engine codes and specifications, engine swap parts, conversion parts guides for popular vehicles, and much more. It’s like a one-stop shop for LS engine swaps!

Here's what you’ll find:

Find Your Engine
With more than 40 variations, the LS family tree can be very confusing if you don’t have a scorecard. Summit Racing has done the research and created easy-to-use guides to find, identify, and upgrade each variant of Gen III and Gen IV engines:
• Find an engine by vehicle type or vehicle by engine type—great for salvage yard searches
• Identify an LS engine by VIN number or visual inspection
• Factory specifications and detailed upgrade guides by engine code

Put the Engine in Your Vehicle
If it has wheels, chances are someone has made parts to stuff an LS in it. We’ve made it easy to find the parts you need to fit an LS in a wide range of vehicles including:
