If I had the welding skills to make some turbo headers I'd be shoving a T70 in there as well. Those 5.3's are not to be messed with on boost...
I'll just stick to an LS6 cam and intake for now. That's not too hard to tune for is it Elite? I need some E-fans switched on in the PCM as well, I think..

Then again, I already have to make some headers. Can you believe nobody makes a set of LS 4x4 S10 headers?

Winter's almost over, time to pull the G5 out again

I don't think I've got the room to flip them, not without putting them through the radiator that is.

Now, If I could get my hands on some of those weldable F body headers I know I could make it work. Stupid LS1tech won't let you go into the B/S/T section for 50 posts or 6 months.

As far as I know Current Performance only has 2WD LSx headers. I'll be handling the wiring myself though. I'm not paying someone 900 bucks to repin a few wires and cut a few out.

How's that charger holding up Springer? I need to go FI with the G5 sometime this summer...

Now I'm off to spam LS1tech, 4chan style

Nice! All hope isn't lost dart that's a pretty good stack of parts I'll post up pics next week when I have a bunch of my new parts installed. May even put the summer wheels back on for a little bit.

And this year lets not fail on the dyno day lol

Yeah I wonder why he doesn't post there are a lot of KC guys that seem to avoid this thread lol. There is an ss/tc at my school who has copied my car except he has gen 1's seen him never talked to him. There is another guy with a lbm ss/sc high rise and g6 gt rims I only pass him I have never seen him outside his car
