MS3 vs VRX5
#23
Lol, off topic is fine. I was wondering about springs as well...you asked a question that I forgot to ask, so all is good lol. Well the guy sold the 5.3 heads, and the ms3......come to find out it was milled, and he had the pistons fly cut, so I wouldn't have bought them anyway. So now its back to 243 heads, with good cam. Anyone else have recomendations on cams? I'm looking to start pulling hard around 2500-3000 rpms, and I'll shift at 6200, MAYBE 6500...depends.

Its the MS3. The springs are very weak now and I need to replace them ASAP. I drive this car alot all over texas where ever I need to go. Its 10 one way to work, 350 one way to my Gaurd drill, and alot of cruising on the weekends. And sometimes to Italy Tx to visit friends, which is around 800 round trip. Been driving it since march 07. So I know what the MS3 is like on the highway, in town all weather. All year.

Wow, I am liking the ms3 a lot more now. I've wanted it before, but this makes me want it more.
I have a question for TSP though pertaining to an order. I ordered the ngk plugs/msd wire combo, but didn't get the wires. I got my sensors, plugs, gaskets, ect. Any help?

I havnt been nice to my car, I do regular maintaince, but I am pulled in alot of dirrections for work Military duty, visiying friends, and the occasional all out when the feeling hits, and the track. Like I said They need replacing, but the PRC golds(duals) have been great and have gone beyond TSP probley has thout. Not recomended cus I am expecting a break, but Uncle Sam has been nice to me for a refund so LME will be getting a call for a 416, I will be reusing my TSP LS6 2.5 heads I got a few yrs ago. Been thinking of reusing my MS3, or the Vindicator(already have) with a 1.8 rocker ratio retarded 2 degrees.
