As previously said the 5.3 LM7 came out a 2003 Express Van with a supposed 5600 miles on it. got it cheap, tore it down after sitting outside for awhile, to find pitting and water in cylinder number 7. Sent it out to Haledon auto parts and waited for a month, got it bored out 20 over, hot tanked, new freeze plug.

Specs on the motor:
LM7 5.3 bored out 20 over
Sealed power Main bearings

Sealed power speed pro pistons
Hastings piston Rings
Factory crank just polished and cleaned
F-body Oil Pan, wind age tray, pick-up tube and dipstick
Factory 5.3 heads
Comp Cams Custom Grind cam of 226/226 with 111LSA
Texas speed Chromeoly Pushrods
PRC .650 Dual Valve Spring kit
LS6 Oil pump and Timing chain
LS7 lifters

All new sensors

As for installing the motor in the car i have
LS1 F-body Clamshells
Hawks Motor mounts
Hawks T-56 Trans mount
LS1F-Body Electric Fans
Hawks"Budget" Stainless steel swap headers

Have loads of crap for this swap just cant remember it all right now. Onto the pics... How does one imbed the pics rather than doing file attachments but not having to worry about photobucket saying ive used up all my space or whatever it is they say?
