    5.3 to 6.0 swap complete... But

    So I successfully rebuilt a lq4 6.0.. New rings, BTR stage 3 truck cam,and remanufactured 243 heads..

    Another 6.2 for 5.3 swap going on.

    My 5.3 suddenly started blowing large clouds of blue smoke on startup. After a mere 220k miles I think it's done. I walked into the cloud to smell and I think it's got a tinge of coolant too. Whether it's getting coolant into the cylinders or not fixing the cylinder heads is enough expense...
