I posted a proposed setup a few months ago. Since then ive decided to do heads as well while its all apart to save myself tearing everything down again a year from now. I talked to Texas Speed today and the recommendation i got seemed to be exactly what i came up with from my own research. Id like opinions from you guys as well before i go ahead and pull the trigger.

Vitals:

2007 Chevrolet Silverado NNBS Regular Cab Short Box: 5.3L V8 LY5
Already done:
Volant Intake
Dynatech LT's/High Flow Cats
Corsa Sport Cat Back
AAM 4.10s
Eaton True Trac
Black Bear Tuned

Have and ready to install:
Calvert Racing Cal-Tracs
Comp Cam Trunions
LS7 Lifters
Valley Cover
Lifter Trays
ARP Head Bolts

New Parts for the Build

Precision Race Components Stg. 2.5 5.3L Heads
TSP 224R Cam 112 LSA
PRC Dual Valve Spring Kit with Titanium Retainers
TSP Hardened Rods

Circle D GM 245mm Pro III 4L60E LS Multi-Disk Torque Converter
3200 RPM or 3600 RPM Stall Speed

I have also considered a TSP 228R but the 224R was recommended. A 3600 Multi Disk is not out of the question, i have driven a truck with one and loved it, i just think the 3200 might suit my driving style a little better. Im going to do a timing set but am unsure if i should do an oil pump while im in there as well. Truck has 40,000 miles on it. How does this setup look to you guys?Thanks to anyone who takes the time to help me with this build. Its my first build and im trying to do it once and do it right.

 

Looks pretty good! Are you going to be doing anything else with your tranny? The 4l60e will not take all that punishment for very long

 

agreed. setup looks good but id look into getting that 4l60e built by one of our sponsors.

 

Forgot to mention that, it will definately be getting built before too long. I just want to get this build on the go so i can work on it this winter (Southern Ontario). Any comments on the stall/cam combo? 3200 w/ TSP224R vs 3600 w/ TSP228R?

 

3600 and 224 gets my vote

 

Thanks for your opinion! 75 views and no one else has thoughts?

 

Imo the 3600 & 224 would be nasty. Maybe a tbss intake to let it breathe with the cam an lt's

 

His truck came with that intake from the factory.

 

i would say the 224 and the 3600

 

If you ever plan on towing anything I would stick with the 3200. As in cam, I would get a custom grind. Not something everyone has. That's the route I'll be goin next time
