  1. Truck Cranking Issue

    in Engine Tech And Modification

    Posted

    Dude I don't know if this will help. But my truck was down for 2 weeks not knowing what the he'll was wrong with it. It wouldn't crank at all. Changed alot starter, fuel pump, relay, ignition etc. Anyways ended up it was my knock sensor under the intake manifold both went out. 2 50$ parts. It started right up after we changed it. Just throwing that out there to you. Good luck.

    I'd get some different springs those trends to not last long, try patriot gold springs. And yes you'll need pushrods as well, and a stall 3000-3400

    Aight. Cool. Thanks for the help. What should be done with the heads. Anything besides the springs. I was going to have them port matched but not polished.

    I have that cam right now and love it, also has good results in 5.3's so a 5.7 would probly respond well to it.

    Cool. Am I going to have to change push rods and all that. Are can I just throw the cam and springs and send computer to Wheatley and be done. I got some 918 springs. And xr265hr cam never been used. Going to send cam back are just buy that 273.

    Sorry I meant to put that I am going to turbo it after motor and trans is done. It is a daily driver. I kind of want to use the 5.3 due to that is what is already in it. I would be spending more money buying a 6.0 to build when I have a 5.3 already. STS rear mount turbo is what the final thing is on it. The truck isles show then go right now. I'm not wanting a fire breather from he'll, but that would be fun. Just wanting more power to turn the 22 and the weight of this 1500 4 door.

    Thank you for replying to the post. I have been looking in the post but haven't ran across any with the cam I am wanting to use.

     

    Welcome to the site.

     

    First thing is first. What is your goal with the truck? Will it be a daily driver, strip truck, mixture of both, are you planning on staying N/A or going forced induction, supporting mods like trans etc, and what is your budget?

     

    Depending on what you are going for, a 6.0L with some minor work done to it will be less cost to build, and gain you more power and torque. Unless your planning on some major boost a fully forged stroker motor isn't necessary.

    There is a ton of info on this site, so use the search button or browse through it and you will fing alot of the questions you have will be answered.

    Hello,

    I have a 2005 GMC SIERRA 5.3l 323 they call it a 327. But anyways I am wanting to bore it to a 347 forged pistons, forged rods, XR265HR Comp cam, LS3 valve springs, and head port matched not polished blue printed and balanced, and of course headers and exhaust. Is this going to make Big difference. What kind of power am I looking at. Truck will be flashed. First motor build. Thanks.
