Hey guys just finding out the last bits of info for a 5.3 swap into my 1995 Z71 with the 350 TBI. I am wondering if the stock exhaust manifolds from a 5.3 truck will work out on this model truck. It does have a 6.5" suspension lift, dont know if that matters but would love to avoid headers as this is definitely a budget build. I saw where one member successfuly used the stock manifolds on his 95 rcsb 2wd 454 ss...Wondering if same body style but 4x4 will work too.
Also wondering if my stock radiator (good condition) will work and if either my old fan or the 5.3 fan will work,,,Any help at all is greatly appreciated. Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Christmas to all.
Edit: ALSO, wondering if the exhaust from my TBI setup will work given I install the 2 new 02 sensors. Its a 2.5" y pipe with one cat all the way back, no mufflers. Should work right? Long as I get a exhaust shop to install the new 02's? Once again all new exhaust would really break the bank on this swap, thanks again guys.
