How good will these heads do with some port/polish work vs. getting new ones for the 5.3? Looking to run N/A and get low 13s with my truck.

5.3 heads respond very well to porting/polishing; send a PM if you want more info.

 

Mr. P. :)

Okay guys some progress. You can run the truck oil pan but you have to cut a lot of the s-10 cross member out which I hate cutting things. I picked up a H3 pan kit, but the pick up tube is on back order and has been for months. So I had to cut/weld the truck tube.

Now the H3 pan is installed and finished assembling the long block.

Nice work Dan. What gives---no flicking off the camera pic?

 

Let me know when the swap is going down. I will head over and help break something.

 

P.S. Steve, either call me or PM me the info you have on PnP'd 862 heads...

he is look at his other hand behind the one holding the welder!! NINJA FINGER :ninja:

 

Yeah, I saw that and didn't know if that was just his typical sissy limp-wrist way he holds things in his hand or if he was trying to make a lame attempt at flicking off the camera...
