I bought a spare 5.3 and took those heads to be CNC'd, valve jobed, and milled. It's going on my Z71. I'm having the spare 5.3 block machined to LS1 bore and going to stroke it....... HA!, I said "stroke it".........to a 383. I know, I know, should've just went with a 6.0, that's what everybody says, but I just want to do this, say I have done it, play with it a while, and then maybe I'll move on. Who knows, I go through engines/mods projects like girlfriends, always looking for faster ones. LOL!

Hey aren't you the bonehead that said in another post that you're an "average Joe" just wanting to hang with the big boys, and you didn't have $5k to drop into a truck...

Did I miss something here? That grocery list is pretty healthy.

Checked it out, but I want something a little closer to home, more frequent, and less restrictive. My beast is in the 13s, but not under it........ YET. I don't want to limit it to just those level of vehicles, I want the regular joe, who can't afford to dump $5000+ into their motor/vehicle, to feel comfortable coming around. I know how it was when I had a little SWB V6 and just wanted to hang with the big boys and learn something, but never felt welcome.

So if I misunderstood that, I am sorry. It's the mixed message that I was reading into...
Sorry.

Sounds like a fun build man similar to my setup well kinda!! Its not how much money you got tied up in a setup its about how much fun you will have doing it... .
Yes more money you have the faster you go but dont forget you were slow at one point to so dont make others feel bad cuz you cam up wit some cash, We that are a little quicker should encourage others to build along with us..Even if you were not welcomed by others who were faster than you before.. The slower guys look up to us in a way, i konw i did when i was running slower.. Hell I still do even!!
