we are not noobs on trucks, if you want we can school you. it a 91 block out of a cop car. crank was replaced along with all bearings and new rings when i bought it. i added vortec heads and a stock lt1 cam. i have no more than 5,000 miles on it. i would estimate it to be about 330-350hp range. here is a video of the truck it is in. this was last year after putting it in.

BTW the block is not redesigned. the block is unchanged from 87-99. heads and cams are the big changes

you would be better off swapping to a marine style intake. it works better.

[sickstepside]

i just want to swap blocks but keep da fuel injected intake i want to no if da 5.0 heads and intake will fit and older 5.7

[eurodad]

5.0 heads will raise your compression.

here is the marine intake

[eurodad]

@eurodad

yes they will fit but 5.0 heads will raise your compression.

here is the marine intake

[sickstepside]

Haha…funny name when asking all the questions in ebonics. You related to “Joe Mechanic”? :nuts:

If these guys are telling you to run the marine intake, then do it. I’m sure Eurodad & Pewter know alot more than yur dealer buds on this subject.

eurodad’s truck ran very well with his budget combo and would make yours do the same. i run a newer driveline

welcome to the site and good to hear another trucker
