Default Take a look at these parts for me

I've got a few parts lying around after my cam swap on my Trans Am. I'm up in the air on if i should sell them or put a little work in my truck. It's a stock 2001 Z71 Silverado extended cab. I'm not sure if they are worth anything so i may just hold on to them.

The parts:
853 heads
Ls1 intake
Ls1 tb
Ls1 injectors
new cam- 212/218 .557 .562 115lsa (thought about a sleeper setup for a while)

Is any of this stuff useful other than being paperweights? All stock parts were on my 99 Trans Am.

you could use the intake but your gonna have to change water pump.... loose a little low end but gain a little top end. heads are gonna drop your compression.... just do the cam

I'd keep and use the cam, but you won't gain anything by swapping on the LS1 intake, you'll probably actually lose a little...not sure about the heads...

the cam is only thing worth putting in the truck. the heads flow the same , but lose compression. the intake is too much trouble to install for no gain. the injectors and tb are rated bout the same as whats in the truck. sell off everything but the cam and get some valvesprings and pushrods to install the cam.

I'm agreeing with what everyone has said...dont swap intakes you'll be disappointed...the heads wont help at all in a 5.3.....and if you decide to sell the cam send me a pm thats what I've been looking for for a while....lol.
