I've already got a turbo from a 6.5 diesel I rebuilt and never used. May try that.
>>13648682
That's a 4.8
>>13648682
Sorry to break it to you, but that's a 3.5L

Already checked the vin of the car the engine came out of. Its a 5.3. They used the same block for 4.8 and 5.3, just changed the stroke on them.

The 4.8 is better in every way
>>13650735
>shorter stroke
>less displacement
How is it better?
Put it in a mustang and make it Good.
Anyone have some extra ls parts lying around? I got to this 5.3 a little late at the junkyard and its missing the throttle body, coil packs, injectors and rails, ecu, wiring harness, and some sensors. Its pretty much a long block plus an intake and a couple sensors.

Also, what would be a good price range if I found the parts for sale somewhere?
