I've got a 5.3 "LS" with a turbo in my 70 C10.
Drives like a stock truck, cruises effortlessly down the highway, did Power Tour and temps reached a whopping 177* driving and idling through the 90+ degree heat. I can't recommend the LS enough, especially with boost.
The combo through an unlocked 4L80E and 9" rear loafed to 475 rwhp, 480 rwtq on 9lbs of boost. It's a blast to drive too, but admittedly it doesn't sound like much.
