    I think you can get a more accurate engine/pinion angle measurement by putting a straightedge across your crank pulley and putting your angle finder on the straightedge.

    I used hooker 8501HKR cast manifolds on my 80 series ls swap. They hug the block pretty well and most 80 series swaps use these to give them clearance. I also used a later year water pump on my LM7 (I used ACDELCO 252901). The output to the radiator is shorter and doesn't interfere with the air intake piping. Not sure if that tip will help on your layout but incase you needed extra room for your intake piping. Excited for the build!

    • @austinniemela
      @austinniemela  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sweet thanks for the info! I think I'm going with hookers, seems like the best fitting manifolds!

    • @austinniemela
      @austinniemela  ปีที่แล้ว

      Did you find a good fitting upper hose? I bought the same pump I have now, but looking at it I might but the one you listed! That’s 07+, they bolt right up to the older 5.3’s?

      Not sure why I don’t see my reply to the upper radiator hose but I believe it’s the factory Silverado hose that came with the engine swap. Lower hose on my setup I used an explorer hose that needed a little trimming. No spacers on the pump. Everything lined up.
