@@stephenreynolds2348 damn that's long, I was just curious is all. I saw budget mentioned so its likely the lm7 iron block. L33 and lm7 are both gen 3 ls blocks but lm7 is iron and l33 is alums
@@tehtehkhantengames8580 I'm sorry. I thought I stuck the answer to that by noting it was a gen iii. There was no aluminum gen iii truck blocks. L33 was made from 2005-2007 and they were all gen iv motors. Sorry if i wasn't clearer in my initial response.
Also preignition and detonation or attempts at hydrolocking your motor are all known culprits for lifting a head. How's your tuning? And more importantly what are you doing for knock detection? Or are you doing anything for knock detection? Whenever i hear about a lifted head this is the first thing that i think about is the explosion happening and the rod not being able to go down like it is still on it's upstroke when the expansion begins. Good luck.
@@stephenreynolds2348 It stretched a bolt and put a crack in the head stud hole. I only owned the car for a month lol. It had a bunch of mods though and I got it for a good price so I went all in on it. L33 with fully forged internals by summit pro series, brian tooley truck norris cam, roller rockers, billet timing chain assembly, melling oil pump, pinned harmonic balancer... literally everything lol. Not taking that chance again. As far as tune it will be done by a guy that knows what he is doing, the sad part is he takes for fucking ever. I dont have the space to do my own work right now so I have been waiting like four months for this dude to put the shit together for me. I will let you know when I know how the tune looks.
Awesome!!!!
which block? iron or aluminum? I just put a l33 into mine after lifting a head on the ls1. A&A s/c with water meth.
This video is of a gen iii 5.3L. I have a build thread for this car here: www.digitalcorvettes.com/threads/2001-turbo-5-3l-c5.296516/
