Default So How bad is it?

Sure this is number 1000 for asking this. Got a 5.3 Vortec. Thinking bout picking up an Extreme Blazer and putting the 5.3 in it. Is it worth it or is it too much trouble to get in to...(Bare in mind we've got electronics experts and enough guys that have put LT1s in s-10s)??? Just never done a vortec motor. Thoughts???

not bad if you just get the swap headers and mounts. if your not doing a bunch of performance stuff just get the sandersons since they fit the best. get some thin electric fans and cut your frame for the oil pan. look at the build in my sig for a general idea, keep in mind I went alot further then I needed too.
