If your going 5.3 you might as well bump up to 6.0.

Then that also bumps up the price tag a couple of thousand...

Got the car washed and vacuumed.

Does SSA have a member map?

I wouldn't say a couple thousand unless your buying a brand new block I guess, but your right cheap 5.3s are much easier to come by then cheap 6.0s

Its ok, I tried to convince Tom to do the 6.0 when he was down here.

So the item I got on ebay was a refurb and not BRAND NEW in box as described. The question I asked seller went unanswered, Never provided shipping information but did get to me in a descent time frame.

Sound like enough for a neutral feedback?

Egay T0P

Can a refurb really be brand new in box though?

1800 vs. Jos

Tom, Have you considered dropping a 5.7 LS1? it seems kind of fitting. If your going 5.3 you might as well bump up to 6.0.

Are you going to be running some kind of EFI?

you're looking at 1500+ for a LS1, and 2000+ for a 6.0L from a junkyard while you can get a 5.3 for 500-600

nope, carb

I think we used to... wonder what happened to that

what do you all think the most power I could squeeze out of the 5.4 2v in the 97 expedition?

the W gave me permission to go nuts pretty much. I just can't find too many people who have built it up. I have been looking at the race car dynamics suspension kit and then tires and wheels but I wanted to really shove a ton of horses in the hood more than anything else.

anyone know of a good place to read up on mod engine builds for that engine?

It's all a matter of how much you want to spend. Could you get 1000+ hp in that thing? Sure, if you're willing to pay for it.

even at the Olympic level, badminton is a stupid looking sport

Lets just say if you know it a refurb and you don't mention it, you're just trying to be shady

There's also the question of what he's trying to do with it, why he wants the extra power...is it "just because" or is there something you want to do that it's not cutting the mustard for?

I think back to the Unimog...HP ain't everything

Its ok, I tried to convince Tom to do the 6.0 when he was down here.

Pretty sure we had an LQ9 conversation as weell.
