Re: 5.3 swap build so far
Yeah it does look tight with that big ole steering wheel!! Looks great though, us normal/shorter guys dont need that much crazy room. I think it looks great!

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
thanks man, its not that tight really, just not a lot of room for adjustment, but way more comfortable than the ol bench seat

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
so a little update on my build, i went to do the front gears a couple weeks ago, pretty much lost motivation, but had the front tires off and ready to work on, a few days ago i started again...holy crap my P/S spindle was a PINTA to get off...finally got it off and have both the axle shafts out and ready to start my gears (well in a couple weeks when i get off the road again) have to get these gears in for winter posi in the rear without 4 high would be just a bit too much fun

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
so I'm finally getting to my knock sensors, got them in, got a new intake gasket, having trouble getting the intake back on, it won't line up, is there a trick to this?

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
Well, alots changed, dont know if any of ya are still here, but I moved to tn, in the process of moving the oil pump stopped and the block seized up, so I pulled motor and bored and stroked it to a 383, I'm in the process of putting it back in...kinda hard remembering where everything goes, but taking it nice and slow
