Scott,
Wouldn't it need to be out of a 99 or later? since the 5.3 debuted on the 99 silverado. Let me guess you have a line on a smoking deal?

Re: project 62
 

Oh my bad i meant '08 not '98... :lol:

Not sure what year it is to be exact, i was too busy choking back the OMG YOU ONLY WANT $250 FOR IT?!?!?!!??!!!?!?!!!?!?!!?!!?!!? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Re: project 62
 

That's what I figured. Sounds like another good deal to me.:metal:

Re: project 62
 

Ya i thought so too. I think the hardest part is going to be finding a harness..

Re: project 62
 

Sounds like a hell of a deal!!! Being a 08 it could be an aluminum block..... Which is sweet! I know someone that has a harness.;) not forsure yet if I'll use it or not. Still leaning towards carb rated. Does it have an intake?

Re: project 62
 

Let me know if you dont use it! Yeah it has an intake and even the cover on the top, injectors and all. the owner said it burned some oil but i have heard of these engines doing that if something goes out and i cant remember what the "something" is :lol:

Worst case ill pull it all apart and re bearing and ring it and call it good and we'll see if it burns any more oil or not..

Re: project 62
 

That's awesome man! I'm pretty sure we can come up with a harness somewhere with all the connections on this board. That is going to be sweetness, and for only $250. :jdp:

Re: project 62
 

I guess I missed this yesterday. Very nice score.

Re: project 62
 

Thanks Billy!

Yeah me too John just as long as I find one where they don't think it's made of gold... Can I borrow your truck?? :rolleyes:

Need some odd and end parts to have a complete engine but still a good deal i believe...

Re: project 62
 

That is a nice update.

Re: project 62
 

Be even better if it was in the truck.

Re: project 62
 

You don't want that ugly thing in the '62, it would be much more at home in my crew....
I'll swing by and get it out of your way tomorrow :devil:

Re: project 62
 

Looks like a hell of a deal!

Re: project 62
 

I hope.. just wonder what a throttle body is going to cost me :lol:

Need a few sensors and some bolts, with there was a salvage around like pullapart that had these and not ones that just sold complete.

Re: project 62

Re: project 62
 

I dusted off the ole 62 the other day and now i got the itch to do some stuff to it... may have a lead on a 5.3 and trans, wiring and all and that willl kick the motivation into over drive!! :lol:

Re: project 62
 

Nothin like a new power plant to lite a fire of motivation under your butt!!!!! I've decided to finally ditch my old 250 and picked a lil something powerful myself.....more to come.

Re: project 62
 

a baseball reference on a truck forum??? Could life be anymore complete? LOL

Re: project 62
 

A friend had this LS in his garage and I bought it with the intent of putting it in one of two vehicles (still thinking about that '63 Pontiac). This is an '02 Firebird 5.7, with the 4L60E, and 40,000 miles. It came with the wiring harness, computer, a set of motor mounts, new plugs, the harness had a couple of ends replaced. I think I also have a set of factory exhaust manifolds. Can't decide what to do with it now!

I ended up with a different truck. Current truck power is in the form of a 5.3 with a 4L60E, cam and head work, around 400 hp. Runs nice!

Re: project 62
 

If you decide against it, think over a price ;)
