    As you said the power on this truck is respectable given its the V6 model I would say it has exactly same horsepower Per each cylinder (compared to its v8 brothers of the time) and pretty much the same torque.

    I have an '88 Cheyenne with the same v-6/5-speed combination. It is a good all-around truck, with pretty decent gas mileage (I used to get around 25 mpg on the freeway with conservative driving habits). But, like your plans, I would like to put in it an LS engine, with hopes of using the same transmission. I would probably stay with a 4.8 or 5.3 LS engine to be able to safely use the NV3500 tranny without destroying it. If you have any techical skills and experience , and it does not take much expertise, you can swap these engines as DIY projects. Plenty of U-tube video tutorials on doing this and many other LS swaps, available and cheap engines in the Pull-a-Part yards, and loads of after market parts to make most any swap possible. Many u-tubers claim to be able to do these swaps for under 1K $s. Good luck.

      In the earlier trucks (1988-1990) it was different. The transmissions look simialar, but the earlier ones had the 5lm60, or Getrag 290, which had 3 shift rails and a different imput shaft bearing compared to later models (1991-1998) nv3500, which had 1 shift rail and a different slave cylinder

    All Chevy trucks of that generation could be had with a manual trans. On the 1500 series, standard was the NV3500 like this truck or the Getrag equivalent in 1993 and earlier models. Optional was the NV4500(1992 and later models) which was the HD version of the NV3500 that added a deep "granny" low and was standard on the 2500 and 3500 series trucks. Optinal on the pre 1992 models was the Saginaw 4 speed which was the predecessor of the NV4500.

    Speaking of manual transmissions, I miss the old 3 speed manual on the columns from back in the day which a lot of people called them "3 on the tree." I've seen a 1987 Chevy Silverado fleetside short bed with a 4.3 litre V6 & a 3 speed manual on the column coupled for sale & I wish I would've bought it & now I regret. It was one of those old square body pickups. The 4.3 litre V6s replaced the inline 6s in the Chevy & GMC fullsize pickups back in 1985 & 1987 was the last year for the 3 speed manual on the column.

That way if you have fuel regulator issues so you can just change it or changing injectors individually.
