I like those battery trays a lot. I think I'm going to get one and cut the logo out and put a chevy symbol in. Then paint. That would look good.

Wow! Thanks for info on the battery tray. I was just getting ready to build one. Instead I'm going to order one.

Started with this and end with this, not much difference

Tennessee Bowtie · 07-11-2014, 10:21 PM

This weekend planning on starting my 5.3 on a stand. Hopefully it will start with stock wire harness and computer just attached to battery with a inline fuel pump. I'll take some pics.

Tennessee Bowtie · 07-13-2014, 10:44 PM

Bad news vats!!!!! Vehicle anti theft system strikes again! Well good news I am now going to be sending off my computer to get done. Hopefully get it back soon.

Tennessee Bowtie · 07-17-2014, 01:34 AM

Sold a car today so I will be starting a build thread of the 69 inline 6 with 3 on the tree to a 5.3 ls with 4l60e thread

Very nice truck. I can't wait till mine is on the road. Should be about a month. I just ordered early classics trans crossmember and their 5.3 lsx mounts. Super stoked to put it in.

slowcpe · 07-21-2014, 02:30 PM

Here's a pic of what my truck looked like this time last year (about 10 months ago)

What it currently looks like

Washed the truck today, changed oil. She is looking and running good even though it's the inline 6 still.

Tennessee Bowtie · 07-27-2014, 09:33 PM

Started on th 5.3. As soon as parts from early classics come in and Jesse at wait4meperformance send back computer and harness we will be in buisness. Oh also steering column from cpp and lokar shift link. What do y'all think is the best fuel pump set up for the 5.3?

Tennessee Bowtie · 08-06-2014, 01:27 AM

Painted my 5.3 valve covers. Chevy orange. Turned out nice. Pretty much just cleaned then wiped real good with mineral spirits and then painted. I did 3 coats and I am happy with the turn out.

Tennessee Bowtie · 08-06-2014, 01:28 AM

I am not sure you my pictures keep coming out sideways when I add them.
