    5.3 build ideas input please

    yea im def not trying to discourage you lol just mean a lot of the money spent now you could prob boost it and get same results with more potential i would do a compression and leak down test on the bottom end, if everything looks healthy i would just leave it. heads, no doubt there are...

    5.3 build ideas input please

    to get 500hp out of a 5.3 NA isnt going to be great for boost later on down the road. meaning compression will have to be 13:1 and youll have to spin it to 9k. the money spent to get there would have already bought sc/turbo.

    Where to find good heim joint tie rods

    The angles(from rack to knuckle) were still pretty bad on mine. It could be aligned but I wanted to get them as flat/neutral as i could. that's why I used longer bolts and spacer, went as far as i could and not get close to inside wheel. I think I got whatever else I needed from McMaster...
