Default 5.3

I am doing a 5.3 swap out of a silverado in my 82 Camaro. I would like to know if a ls3 intake would fit, or would it be best to just go with the ls6 intake?

ls6 is the easiest and best in my opinion for the money. with the ls3 you would need to buy heads from one to or l92 heads since the rectanglenport while the 5.3's and 5.7's ls1 are all cathedral port. Not worth it if you just want bolt ons.

I'm new to LS1TECH and I thought I'd get some input on my latest idea.

I am considering buying a single cab S10 and doing an LS1 swap into it.
What are y'alls opinion/suggestions on this?

the S10 swap will take alot of time and $$$$$ and traction will be a big problem to overcome, but it would be cool to see one done.

check out the conversion and hybrid section ,search for some s10's and go through some treads for some ideas and opinions.

For the OP i think the ls6 will be your best bet
