  • This is my first LS Swap ever. It's a big cam 5.3 and a stock 4L80E.
    in order to use a 4L80E with a 5.3 you have to use a adapter/ spacer for the flywheel.

      It'd be impossible to go forward unless I raise the oil pan up n over.hope I'm done there/long is it don't wear a slot in the oil pan.

Its the only thing keeping me from driving this car and I can't figure out what the problem is!
