Motor Prep

gettin ready to dive into this turbo build, so i figured id get the engine ready.

its a 5.3, out of an 07 silverado. is there a write up somewere i missed on what i need to make this work with an f-bod?

i know it has the 58x reluctor wheel, so i need to get it to a 24x. BUT i can just buy the Lingenfelter module they sell for it ($250) or can i just pull the crank and swap wheels from my LS1 ?

i took the pickup/pan off my 1 ls1 block i sold, knowing the truck pan wont work with the Fbody K member, but will i run into a problem with pan/pickup clearance on the 5.3 ? i never havent had the chance to check myself. and if it does, solutions ?


i plan on the doing headstuds and rod bolts befor it goes in, anything else i should do in prep for boost ?
