Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

I cleaned out the Pcv port and baffle on the valve cover on my 5.3 l33 Ls. Recently swapped into my 72 C10.
From what I have read, the port can get plugged up on the 2005-2007 engine, so it was time to check it out……

I would be torn as well, after finishing the swap, I do like the power ( I want more) it starts instantly, and with the 6 speed manual transmission freeway driving is now possible. But…. A big block would be awesome, I do love the simplicity, and how clean an engine bay can look, without all the extra wires needed for the LS. So I guess I need 2 trucks, I love both the modern technology, as well as the old school simplicity. One with each, that way I could enjoy each one for what they are…
