Default 5.3 w/ EPS cam
So, after swapping the 5.3L in place of the V6 last weekend its been a rough week. Tuesday I had a buddy take it to his work (Dealership) and did a coolant flush, oil change, and power steering flush. The motor had been sitting for at least a year or more so all the fluids were disgusting! Well I got the truck back drove it half the day on wednesday then the battery decided to take a **** So, $100 bucks later I finally got another battery in it last night and got her back up and running. I tightened down some loose ends and got a few kills last night.
I got a wild hair to get rid of the restricting exhaust because it sounded like a damn popcorn maker. So here's a new idle vid....

I hate how loud it is, but its just temporary until i get the LT's and new muffler on. Enjoy

Nice! I bet the difference is night and day! Just like when I went to the 6.0 from a 4.8!
