Im sorry if this subject has been beat to death, and i have used the search button and have read read and read tell nothing makes sence haha.

I have a 5.3 LH6 that i have a couple questions about....

Timing chain tensioner broke and caused slack ended up sending all intake valves into the pistons.

First what pistons from diffrent years are interchangbale? Or any reccomnedations on new (cost affective pistons) I dont mind spending the cash just dont have 8-900 just for pistons.

From what i understand i can swap in a ls2 chain tensioner if the reluctor wheel is correct size correct?

Im going to delete the active fuel management so do i need to just replace those lifters or just relpace all and do i need new lifter holders? If so which ones

Im going to be putting alittle boost to the motor to hopefully be around 500-525, so should i run the ls9 head gasket kit with studs?

Again im sorry if the topic has been beat to death i just need some straight answers, Thanks in advance.

 

Brand new pistons are cheap, start at like 35 each, why install used pistons?

 

My cost through gm is 107.38 can you share a link?

 

LS7 lifter kit# 12499225
Lifter trays# 12595365
Stock LH6 piston# 89060486

 

I seen those but not "specifically" for the lh6

Part number for piston I pulled from vin is
89060484

So will the 89060486 pistons work or anyone kno the difference?

 

Whats the last 8 of your Vin? I just searched under an 08 LH6, so there may be a couple of listings?

I show the 89060486, and 89060483 as an oversized option. The 89060484 is an oversized L59 piston.

 

Hmm awesome then That's great news haha
