Here's A tip from my experience on dealing with turbo 5.3's, Put a LS6 valley cover on there with a really good catch can.If you run the PCV Though the valve covers,Motor will most Likely burn oil Like a freight train.Anyways good luck

Here we go
It's N/A now, going to get my nitrous kit hooked up and a manual valve body in here soon.
What was done to it so far.
5.3, 100k mile motor. Just did gaskets on it, etc. Removed all of the torue management so far.
Th400, mostly stock rebuild. Dyno'd and should be good to 800hp
Solid home made motor mounts
Rear upper and Lower fully adjustable control arms
Chromoly Iceman trans crossmember
Brock fab radiator support
Lots of engine bay cutting and removing of stuff I don't need
Rear sump summit 16 gallon fuel cell
Bosch 044 In line fuel pump
Corvette fuel regulator
All stainless braided line and AN fittings
Returnless fuel system
LT1 Camaro Radiator
Some stainless radiator overflow
F-body hooker headers cut and beat up to fit
New rear end bearings, still needs some new end axle seals though I found
All new front calipers and pads
New brake lines from the proportioning valve back, with new wheel cylinders in back/all new hardware
Had to modify a 4l80e trans yoke to fit
New driveshaft U joints
New gauges and dash panel
Made a PCM tray/heater delete panel
Just got a TSP X-Pipe on this week, the car sounds 10x better.
Getting groceries
