LS Swap Fuel Pump
I used the Corvette inline pump with the filter mounted before the pump, I should have put a secondary filter after the pump but I've had no issues. I have dual 86 tanks with the standard sending units, going to the standard GM dual tank valve and standard switch on the dash.- 86 C10 Shortbed

lowering my 1987 silverado
I went with McGaughys kit for my 86 Shortbed. Just make sure you verify your brakes size. They had heavy duty brakes and standard brakes. Heavy duty had a 1 1/4” thick rotors and the standard was 1” thick rotors. My truck has the 2.5” front and 4” rear. McGaughys.com- 86 C10 Shortbed

Best budget V8 swap into a 1986 C10?
There are some hidden costs swapping the 5.3LS motor in but the advantages are worth it. I also put a posi and 3.73 gears in . What a blast to drive.- 86 C10 Shortbed
