Just read up to date so far. I saw you last year with the 5.3 at the local cruise in and it was already point and pull the trigger fast. Can't wait to see the new set up. I was driving the charcoal 4th gen Nova. I am working on a 6.0 to swap in the Nova this fall.

Any updates?
Get the motor back together?

been working on it but i havent had much time.

Started assembling the engine. Hopefully by christmas ill have it back together.

At least your moving forward.

What was the name of machine shop you used again? Do you have a contact #.
Are they specific with LS engines? I need them to look at a block that I've had for a while that has a spun cam bearing. Its the center journal.
I was looking into P&M as well. Have you had experience with them?

Thanks

Since i am once again waiting on motor stuff i decided to work on the chassis. I bought a wilwood pedal assembly and started re working my firewall and trans tunnel .. This will allow me to move the motor back further in the chassis.

Some minor updates.

I finished the new tunnel and firewall. I bought a stock 5.3 to throw in the car to drive around while i am building the new motor. I cleaned it a painted it silver. I think is turned out alright
