So I got some advice from a member over on LS1tech and I want to run it by your guys. The guy said that if I need a bore anyway I could save some money buying used 5.7L pistons from an LS1 and just have it bored out from a 5.3 to a 5.7. Does that sound possible to your guys? I am pretty sure I'll need new pistons so cheaper and more cubes seems like a good idea.
