    Ordered some parts today: sach 1050 flywheel, adapters for water temp and oil temp senders, the setbacks for the motor mounts, a set of PAC 1518 beehive springs, and the walbro 255 fuelpump. A few more parts to buy along with sending my harness off and mailing my computer to Nelson and I'll be ready to get the swap started!

    Sounds pretty similar to my swap! I'm in the process of pulling the old motor right now... Did you keep the 11" drums on your 14 bolt? Great brakes! You need to swap in the appropriate combination valve though...

    Welcome to the site tons of info on here And lots of very helpful members. Whats that cam speced for?Seems a lot different from what I seen in the ls world.If its something that just came with the motor Id consider having someone(LS noligable) look at the profile before installing it .

    Not bashing it (Im not a pro on cam profiles) I just made a few bad choices when I did my first build and waisted time and money.Good luck on the build Love the OBS trucks.they are a great foundation to build on Pat G or Brian Tooley are smart dudes

    Thanks man!

    I had a LS guy that I trust design it for me but I'm no cam expert either so was just seeing what some other knowledgeable cam guys thought. I was told that cam profile should get the DCR where it needs to be without me needing to mill the heads.

    Buying the last bit of parts for the swap today. Also mailing out my harness today to Standalone Solutions and the computer to Nelson Performance. Once I get those back we'll get the swap underway! I'm getting pretty excited!

    Flywheel is a sachs 1050. Didn't plan on buying a new clutch because I'm swapping in a nv4500 as soon as I find a good used one. Are the clutches for a nv3500 and nv4500 interchangeable?
