On the stud kit....the windage tray for the LS1 has 8 holes, and the truck has 10.

Might want to get a couple of extra bolts/washers if you can!

what bearings did you order? stock or clevite? i have a set of stock bearings i was going to use on my 6.0 build and the engine builder that's gonna do it said that he never uses stock on performance stuff because he ALWAYS runs into some sort of problem with them. i'm sure you went with the Clevite or federal moguls.

On my truck on 8psi I made 535rwhp and 500rwtq

Sounds good Ranwalk. I think I missed it, what was causing the knocking in your engine?

Hey Jim, what are the specs on that blower cam? just curious to know...
Was this on your 5.3L or 6.0L that you made 535hp/500tq with that cam?
