yup just pull the weird stuff off the back of the 5.3 pump and slap the stock valve & fitting from the old sbc pump in there. worked like a charm and no leaks. take a sec to flush your box and pump. mine got moisture in it from sitting and made a nice milkshake when i fired it up. |

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
Hooked up and ran, no codes at the moment, when it does throw a code it's crazy bright, that just lets you know it's working

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
so this linkage somewhat worked, didnt want to go into park, so back to the drawing board...i might do something similar except with 1/4 inch steel, i may do the something but go underneath the column instead of over it...pretty frustrating!!!!!
