Want to keep working on my car but tuition keeps rising...forcing me to cut back on a few things. have a 5.0 with a complete nitrous setup and the lil guy took 100 shots just fine but the clutch didn't.

What kind of numbers could i expect with a cam only 5.3, ls1 intake, and a 6 speed? i would spray a 100 at least, going to 150. This car is pretty much just a weekend cruiser.

Thanks

i would think right in the nieghbourhood of 550 at the motor. assuming all the tuning is good and you have a well matched cam to the application. that would be my best guess.

that sounds extremely high even with a ~150 n2o

a 5.3 stock makes around 345 at the flywheel with no accesories being driven, add a decent cam and you should be able to pick up a good 40-50 horsepower if matched correctly, theres 400 right there. the ls1 intake will gain you roughly 10-12, plus the 150 shot, id say its a good ballpark.

Assuming a dry system.



Motor 290-310
Cam 45-55
Nitrous 100

465hp at the crank, 410hp at the wheels

BTW..... the LS1 intake will rob some TQ from what the truck intake makes.

If it helps my 4.8 in my 07 silverado ran a 12.64 with a cam and headers on a 150 shot. The race weight was over 5000 lbs. So I'd say the 5.3 would push over 500 at the flywheel on nitrous.

450whp with those mods and a 150shot

my 5.3 put down 330/390 on a dry 50 shot...this was before i had longtubes and a cam...ill be shooting for 500 to the wheels with a wet 150 shot...this is through 3.90s and 3600 converter
