I'm sure he will chime in but if you are active in the Texas and SRK section you will assume the 4150 is something he got for a "STEAL" so he is using it.

Mavn, is this the V6 you were going to get rid of? I had the same idea with it but was planning on leaving the head lights and the other "street legal" necessaries. The guy that needed a transmission in his Camaro was going to buy it and I was gonna swap the transmission into his car for the left over she'll. I was going to part it for positive equity and build a complete POS *** hauler.

I would think for a 5.3 to expel a shot that big you will need a lot of exhaust duration in the low to mid lift area. Less so if you have ported 243's. If you are stockish compression, I would try keep the dynamic compression pretty high and make sure the tune is spot on. It's only $25 for one of the pros like Pat G to specify you a cam.

Default Tbi 4250

Hi, you may want to investigate MY cast 4250 TBI.
Tested by Steve B. @ Westec, on his flow bench, with flow EQUAL to a 1150 Holley.
The "footprint" is the same bolt pattern as the 4150.
The manifold would need a slight mod at the air inlet opening.
The Air Door has TPS, IAC option, and NOS bosses.

Would you have an interest ?

I need more information about a Cam choice ?

My guess is 252* I 270* E with 116-118 C/L.
I would use our Ti-Valves for the intake.
