I'm Awesome
Well old 5.7 blew a head gasket so why not pull it out for a ls motor. Here's the run down and what I have. I know I need a lot of help so hopefully you guys can set me straight.
I've got a 5.3 from a 03 Tahoe it was a dbw but we are converting to a cable. I already have the swap pretty much bought except for the cable. I have the wiring harness being shipped from psi conversion to adapt my 5.3 to.my 700r4. I bought the Hughes performance spacer but am not sure if I need the longer bolts. If so anyone have a link?
Next order of business I bought the 1 inch set back plates so I know that will work fine. I know I'm going to have to notch frame for AC which I had done for the s10. So as for mounting the motor in the rails I'm good. Heres where I'm getting confused. Fuel. I'm truing to not have to replace all lines but want to make sure its safe to drive daily without a line bursting or whatever.
I know I'm going with a upgraded pump in tank but other than that I'm lost. I'm pretty sure my fuel rails are returnless since I have one line opening driver side going to the rear of the truck.
So stating that, what do I need to.do to get the fuel situation wrapped up? I've seen people do.adapter fittings but I'm.just completely confused at this point. And being returnless do I.need to do the vette filter?
Complete newb here do please take it easy! Lol. Pictures will be posted as soon as I.can get on my computer and not my smart phone.
Thanks again. Justin
