LS6/T56 swapped S-10

My buddy and I are gonna look at a S-10 with a LS6 & T56 swapped in. I just wanted to know if there was anything that I should keep my eyes out for?
I was gonna check all the electronics to see if the wiring was done properly and every thing functions. I was also gonna check for any clearance issues or rubbing anywhere. What else should I check concerning swapped applications?
Any ideas on how fragile the rear end on that truck is?
Thanks for your help.

Make sure it isn't a ******-rigged swap. Keep your eyes out for tape and glue. Plenty of that on hybrid swaps unfortunately. Pop the hood and see how clean it is. Make sure the dash, AC, etc all works if that's your cup of tea.



Little trucks like that probably have the same 10-bolt that's in the F-bodies...hopefully it at least has the 8.5" 10-bolt, tho.
