The more I read about LS and Cummins engine swaps and all the various fabrications needed, I'm leaning more and more toward this setup as it seems like the right thing for me. Not putting those conversions down, just not for me. The quickness of the LS is appealing but realistically, I never bought my 110 thinking it would be a race car.
If this 292 conversion works out to be all that it looks like it will be, count me in to covert from the 3.5 to this 292. All I'm looking for is being able to quickly get out on the highway and be able to maintain speed. On back roads at inclines/hills, I'm looking to not act like a loaded 18 wheeler...speed up going down the hill so I can hopefully make up the next incline and staying close to a decent speed. Being a bit of a "sleeper" truck for performance and surprising other drivers would be cool too but like I said, for me I'm not looking for a race car.
Having the extra room under the bonnet is a huge plus too. Ease of maintenance and room to add power steering and AC in the future is also appealing.
Can't wait to see more about this...who knows, maybe I'll be one of the early adopters!!! I enjoy working on and updating my 110 so this is right up my alley.
