If you already have the LS intake on there, why would you go backwards in technology and put a carb on there? That's like taking you disc brakes off to put on a drum setup. Is that the LS1 or LS6 manifold? Are you planning on selling it?

Thanks. I will keep that in mind.Originally Posted by kerrige
It has the stock truck intake on it now. He wouldn't let the intake go with it. Plus it was the LS1 intake. I want to make this one as simple as possible and a carb setup is much more simpler than an EFI setup. For the most part. Plus my dad is old school and I am new school and I got him turned over to the LS world and we both want to see what kind of power can be made by meshing old school and new technology together.

Carb, intake, air cleaner and breather are on order and will be here next week.
My old 305 has been torn down and the engine stand is empty so I can pull the 5.3 and put it on the engine stand so I can go through it.

Can't wait to see this one. What intake and carb are you using?

Some parts showed up today. I still need to take the block apart and inspect it.

I was looking for a 6.0 or 6.2 and they are hard to find locally so I am gonna move forward with the 5.3. I am gonna bore it out and go ahead and run nitrous.
What is the safest bore diameter these motors can be bored out to?
I am looking at going with a Howards Cam # 190375-10. It is a cam made for LS running Carbs. The reason I am going with Howards Cams is because my dad has used them for years in many street rods he has built with great results. It was always between Crower and Howard Cams.
Any suggestions from the members on here?
