Default New guy here....

Hey everyone...new on here and about to start a ls swap. I have a 70 chevelle....496 700+ hp, have other plans for that motor. I am going to let my son drive the chevelle, and we thought it would be fun to put a 5.3 in it.
He bought a 5.3 out of a 2002 wrecked chevy pickup, I bought him a victor jr intake for christmas. Just wanted to get on here and see what we are in for.

Welcome.

I hear the Victor Jr on a 5.3L is good are you going to EFI or carb it?

Love to hear more about your project.
