    5.3L LM7 Swap into OBS

    I'm currently trying to figure out which cam to put into it. It will be a dd city and highway, I'm wanting it to have a good amount of power at lower rpm's. (Good power and good driveability). Im thinking of going with the SPDC SD0053 (205/210) and upgrading the springs with it of course. But...

    5.3L LM7 Swap into OBS

    I was wondering about the fuel system. My in-tank pump is brand new as it had stopped working a week before my engine went. Am I able to leave that pump in the tank and just do an inline high-pressure pump with that of course running new fittings and lines

    Hey, I'm going to be swapping the 5.7 in my '97 Yukon (4L60E and 4x4) with a 2002 5.3L LS over the winter.

    Runs Rough Under Load

    I had put the fuel pressure somewhere in this thread and it was within spec, the fuel filter is new. I do believe this issue could be driveline related it only really happens when the tranny doesn't shift propperly

    Runs Rough Under Load

    The scanner wasnt reading a code for the rich, it was just in live data (specs from the vehicle whilst it was running). Yes, it still runs rough, once it starts its the worst at high rpm... i have to let off the throttle for a while for it to go away. And i cant take the scanner from the shop...

    Runs Rough Under Load

    I don't believe they are ACDelco they were just ones from my shop. I know ACDelco are good replacement parts for these older gm's. I believe the old wires were ac Delco, however, it had the issue before all the brand new parts.

    Runs Rough Under Load

    I fixed it today, bottomed it out fully counterclockwise and got it exactly to zero when revved up there was no change. it seems to idle better, shift better, and accelerate better... however it still doesn't like hills and continues to have the same problem

    Runs Rough Under Load

    i It may have been incorrect because I was idling at around 750 when I checked it. i don't understand how loosening that little screw can help change the cam retard... the distributor cap can only bolt down one way so how is it possible to change the degrees. wouldn't it just causes a bad...

    Runs Rough Under Load

    The scan tool simply stated bank one and bank 2 rich. Im not sure if it has a record function but its a $4000 dollar scan tool so it doesn't leave the shop for personal use sadly. ill have to buy a little scan tool and have someone look at it while i drive. The problem is it only throws a check...

    Runs Rough Under Load

    I had time to use my shops Autel scan tool on lunch today... there werent any stored codes, nor was there any freezeframe data. I allowed the truck to warm up and took a look at the live data. There wasn't a single misfire, Bank 1 and 2 was running rich, and it appears as tho all the sensors are...
