5.3 Swap
I have a 1991 Camaro that is a V6 car with the 5 speed manual....My goal is to put a 5.3 motor in it and turbo it now..... some say it can't be done .....some say to much time and money......i say....I Don't Care....I am building this car for me....It can and will be done.....and done cost effective...What I am looking for is someone who has done this not only successfully but someone who could just point me in the right direction for some parts...And maybe a littl of advice lol...

Re: 5.3 Swap
You can't keep the T5 you have, you'll need a T56 or a 4L80E.
