Got a jegs 2700rpm stall behind a 5.3 with a th350 trans in a light 91 s10. No anti ballooning plate it was a cheapy its all I cud afford I only need it to last 1 season and not even 1000miles. I was wondering what u guys think the Max amount of spray on this converter wud be. Iv seen people spray 150 with great reliability on a stock converter some even do 200 but that's defiantly borrowed time.


Thanks

No cam in the 5.3? A 100-150 will last a long time.

Thought about that 2216 but I don't have me way of changing cam bearings. U think the converter wud last at 150shot?

I would spray my 2216 of it was my competition car, but it's not. That cam and a 100 shot will live for a while I think.

Are oil pump mods or a new 1 needed

Has anybody used a efi kit here like a powerjection. I'm thinking bout buying 1

The atomic kits are pretty sweet. If I didn't need to get a new Trans that I want for over 2k I would probably try it.

Hmm. Ya that 1 looks good but I like the Holley terminator but there's 0 reviews on it

And all I see they have to have a distributor signal how wud this work on a ls

cam swap is easy in a ls motor... pull front acc. pull the balancer front cover oil pump take out rockers and pushrods. swap valve springs and valve seals if needed and booom thats bout it... pull the cam and put it all back together!!!

Why wud I have to remove the oil pump

Birdracing

The oil pump sits right in front of the camshaft, there is no other way of getting the cam out of the block.

The oil pump doesn't have to be removed. It sits on the crank snout

your right you dont... but it makes it A LOT EASIER to line up the timing marks ont he timing set and you should replace timing chain and oil pump while your in there for the extra insurance
