I run PRC 5.3 heads on a LQ9 with a cam a little bigger than the one you are looking at, and it runs strong for what it is

Awesome thanks for the reply . I'm in a layaway plan with TMS it's so hard to save any $ with the times . I'm sticking to a limited budget and I want to make sure it's done right after the last shop I took my motor to swapped motors with me . Then it set me back 5 years until I could justify spending the $ , jobs are hard to find in Vegas without knowing a bunch of ppl . Do you know if the ls1 underdrive Pully's are compatible with the lq4 ? The Slp site says it's compatible with ls1, ls2, ls3 but I just want to reassure myself lol

I hear ya on the money/job thing man lol. All I know is that my ASP underdrive pulley was compatable with my LQ9. Can't imagine yours not being compatible as well
