I was thinking about just putting a gm replacement one on. But if ya'll don't think I should I wont. Just wanted to ask.

You can't run a double roller with that reluctor anyway. The only way to have double roller and room for the crank sensor is to buy the low pro reluctor and the billet timing cover. Then the electric water pump is required. Just stick with a stock timing set.

geez, it looks like it costs more to go 24x than to just swap in a whole 5.3 lol.
How so? I'm only in the hole $300ish after selling some things. I don't have to do anything with my trans either..
Andddddd... he remains true blue LTX!

Just from looking at the prices of stuff in the link albinobird posted. Granted I don't know what things are all required to do the conversion, just seems like it would add up quick. I only spent about $1200 for my whole swap when it was said and done w/ LTs and a tubular K. I actually made money from converting my trans so definitely no complaints there lol.Quote:
