Re: His name is "George" 84' C10
Checked one major item off the list.
Had good communication with the seller of a 5.3 and was able to strike a deal. Funny thing, the motor was only 15 mins. away from where I purchased the truck (3 hours from me).
2002 LM7 5.3 LS
Here is what was done and some goodies it has:
3 Angle valve job
Bores honed
Mahle piston rings
Gaskets/ seals (full set)
Melling replacement oil pump
GMPP ZR1 cam
Cam bearings
PAC 1218 Valve springs + valve seats
Speedmaster head studs
BR7EF plugs
The plan is to find a NV3500 trans that will bolt right up and will have a hydraulic throw out bearing this way, I don't have to mess with linkage. I know there has been some long debates about this trans. It comes from the factory mated to 4.8's and 5.3's, so its good for me. Don't plan on slapping a number on the door and racing this, plus who has money for a T56 anyway?
