Damn, what kind of baffles do you have in your oil pan?!

BOWTIECJ7

Whatever was stock I had no loss of oil pressure at any time. Why?

just cause these engines have been known to have oiling issues with high lateral gs, and at steep angles.

I used an improved racing baffle in my f-body pan.

thats badass though

BOWTIECJ7

Thats the problem your using an F body pan. From what I've read on here there are several people having no problem using the stock truck pan and have no loss of oil preasure on extreme angles. I have seen no problems yet personally. Knock on wood! lol

Thanks this is turning out to be a blast.

Bowtie What kind of mileage are you getting? I put a 5.3 LM7 in a 88 YJ running 4L60E with 4:10 gears running 33's and I am seeing about 14. I bought the HP tuner and I am working trying to get the mileage up better than where it is. I will say that it is a blast to drive.

BOWTIECJ7

It gets 18 in town and 22 hwy with 4.10s, th350 and 38s.

LS1 TJ

No offense but 22 mpg with 38" tires /4:10 gears and no OD trans?

What rpm at 60 mph?

I agree it's a great swap.

BOWTIECJ7

Yes sorry I should have said that before thats at 65 I don't have a tach sorry

a buddy of mine gets 17 with a 5.3 turbo 400 and 38s in his wrangler. Its a fun mud toy forsure. A turbo would make that thing real nasty.

I saw your jeep on YouTube trying to find out more info on the headers in one of the videos you said they're from a 2000 camaro do you have more details and pictures of them and the exhaust?

BOWTIECJ7

BOWTIECJ7

Thanks for posting the pictures I was thinking they were long tubes looks like they are either thirties or mid length, I would love to find a long tube that would fit inside the frame.
