Re: Vortec eng swap
I'm doing the 5.3 swap in my 84 k10...ive seen a bunch of guys doing it on here but not around where i live (jacksonville nc) but i did meet a guy doing a swap into a newer mazda rx8, looks pretty good...you can check out my swap in my signature, I'm not a professional mech or anything but its coming along pretty good with the help of the guys here
