On the 5.3 it was manditory to change the pushrods. The lifters I didnt change because I only had about 25000 miles on the engine.

Wow that thing sounds sick. Reminds me of some old street racing days in a 70 Chevelle with a 292 comp. That 55 is going to be bad! I would love to see some build links on that and the Vega! That is going to be a fun ride right there!

Louisiana Gulf, what chip did you use for your set up, or did you build a cutom setup for the msd box?

Hey Louisiana Gulf, how is your car running? I'm working on a simular set up and I'm curious about what to expect.
