This installation guide is meant to be used for general information on components and procedures for
installing your new BluePrint Engines LS series. It is not intended to be an all-inclusive guide and if at
any time you have questions, please reach out to our tech department at 308-236-1050 and they will
be happy to help. Please read through the entire guide before starting your install to make sure you
have all necessary components and parts. The guide is broken down into two main sections.
The first installation guide section is general LS engine install information, mainly intended for retrofit
swaps into vehicles that were not factory equipped with an LS engine. It does however contain useful
information for ALL LS installations, so please review even if replacing an existing LS engine.
The second is for vehicles that came from the factory with an LS engine. Please see page 3 for existing
LS application.
