LS3 swap C5Z, pics and video
Hi guys
This is my first engine build/swap, only done cam swaps and stuff before. It took the better part of 6 months to build and did most of my research on here... For tuning I used HP Tuners, SD OL.
Let me know what you guys think and if you have any questions
Thanks
Empty engine bay
LS6 ready for new owner
Forged LS3 shortblock
PRC heads from TSP, complete with double springs and LS3 valves
Machining oil drain lines
LS6 Batwing oil pan
LS7 lifters, drilled lifter buckets, oil restricted pushrods,
Comp Cam LXL 226/238 for road racing
Casper electronics wires for the LS3 throttle body, map sensor and knock sensors
Modified engine mount
New balancer
Oil accumulator, oil pressure gauges for actual engine pressure and reserve pressure, and a 40PSI oil pressure warning light.
Oil drain lines
LS6 knock sensors
LS6 map sensor
Engine ready to go in
Oil pressure warning gauges in place
My PCV
Check out my video. Motor ran strong for (edit: 5 for points and 1 for fun) 6 totalTime Attack races.
