    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?

    You have to run a LS 4.8 clutch with the 1050 flywheel....the older ones won't fit and the bolt holes are different. I ran the RAM 1550 flywheel and it will run the LS clutch or the sbc clutch. And I'm not sure if the 3500 and 4500 use the same clutch but I don't see why they would be different..

    Damn, thanks! You don't happen to have a part number for the LS 4.8 clutch do you?

    You sure the bolt holes are different on the sach 1050? My buddy did a 5.3 swap with nv3500 in a 90 k1500 and used his stock clutch with the 1050. They also put a stock one in another friends 90's model with 5.3 swap.

    Here's the problem....the obs flywheel has standard threads. The pressure
    Plate bolts are shouldered so they center the clutch assembly on the flywheel. The nbs flywheel has dowel pins that center the pressure plate. It uses metric bolts. To use the obs clutch on a nbs flywheel you have to remove the dowel pins, and the metric bolts arent shouldered...and I believe you have to ream out the holes on the obs pressure plate for the metric bolts to go through
    It. So now what keeps everything perfectly centered? some people don't have any problems with it but Iv got too much into my build to gamble on something like that
