Ok guys tight budget but I'll make it work... LOL

I don't have any pics right now put I'll post when I do.

So I have a 2000 RCSB Silverado with a 5.3... The truck has been rolled over and half a$$ repaired and has hit a 4x4 post on the side but I got it for $100(long story involving a 4-wheeler trade)... anyway I told my buddies the first mod I'd ever do if I got me an ls powerd truck was a 6.0 swap... And here we go!!!

Problem is I didn't know that 99-00 lq4's had longer cranks... So the truck has been sittin in the shop with no motor in it for like 2 months!!! Anyway I decided to put my 5.3 crank in the 6.0 so i'm gunna start on that next week. I couldn't afford a cam but my buddy put one in his 01 trans am and he gave me his cam... As far as I know, it is the stock 01-up 5.3 and 6.0 cam so I should gain a little there... The stock cam specs are below in the list...

Camaro/Firebird
98 12557812 198/209 .500/.500 119.5
99-00 12560965 198/209 .500/.500 119.5
01-02 12561721 196/207 .467/.479 116

Trucks and SUV with Vortec engine
LR4 and LM7
99 12560966 191/190 .457/.466 115.5
00-04 12560967 191/190 .457/.466 114
the 03-04 LM7 used the 12560967 camshaft

LQ4
99-00 12560967 191/190 .457/.466 114
01-04 12561721 196/207 .467/.479 116
01-04 LQ4 cam is same as Camaro, Corvette LS1 and LQ9 cam

Anyway I also bought a Redstar 3000 conveter...

I'll keep you posted on the build...

Update...

So I ditched the stock ls1 cam... Me and my bro made a deal on his b1 cam (221/221 .558/.558 114) and i put it in on saturday... I also put comp 918's and new plugs in. Works so much better when the motor is not in the truck!!!
I got the 5.3 crank in the engine and also the 3000 converter I got from Dozerdan in the tranny... All I got to do is drop the motor in now!!!
I'll try to get some pics taken tomorrow night and I'll post them...

Hey Tyler that would be great... His truck still don't run right. Unless its above 5 grand, then it runs great!

Ok guys, so I got it running, now I just need a good tune! Still workin on it but I made a speedo video anyway. Let me know what you think:

This first video, , shows I only went to 98 but it actually did 103, I think there is something wrong with my speedo

The second video shows my log with my efi-live scan tool, its the same run, I logged the same time I recorded. It shows I went 103...
