Default RE: Engine Swap Question

My wife and I were wondering, would an LS series motor, prolly the LS2 or the LS3, would fit into a Tracker, we hope/plan to buy a late model tracker and turn it into the ultimate sleeper. We realize that the motor mounts, xmsn, drive shaft, rear end, will all have to be replaced. We are both helicopter mechanics and both would like to undergo this challenge. We were just wondering if it has been done before and if anyone had any ideas or help they would like to offer us. Thank you for the help.

yes the 4.3 fits but the radiator needs to be pushed all theto the grill and that puts the distrubter right next to the fire wall as far as a ls2 or 3 there would be some cutting of the firewall due lack of room. these things are awesome off road with the additional power
