5.3 with comp cam My stock ls1 lost oil pressure on the highway about two months ago, replaced it with a cheap 5.3 to get my car running in a hurry as it's my DD.
Car has stock ls1 head with after market springs
Comp cam 220/224 on 114 lsa I believe lift is around 53x
Stock manifolds/gutted cats
Ls1 intake
Lid and catback
Dynoed 308/318
How do these numbers sound to y'all I was hoping for a little more personally but I understand the intake and manifolds are a hinderance

Kidding apart, put headers on, that cam needs more exhaust for sure.

i think those numbers are damn good given the use of ls1 heads and manifolds. get some headers, an ls6 intake, and good tune on it...i don't see why you couldn't get somewhere around 335 whp.
then i'd look at milling the **** out of those heads haha.

Really that sucks I tried searching which heads would be better and I thought what I found said they were basically the same heads with thR truck heads having a smaller intake valve
I don't believe they were 862 by the way
