5.3 LS engine for Street Stock type racing
Has anyone had experience with taking one of these engines and using it for Street Stock type racing? If so did you convert it to a distributor and mechanical fuel pump or keep the FI and ignition system that was with the vehicle? Spec intake and 4412 type 2 bbl carb on pump gas? What did you do for a Left-Turn pan and pickup? Any feed back will be appreciated. Thanks Al

Very common up here. They work well in any combination you choose.

All our SS classes here require flat Tappet lifters and mechanical fuel pump. What do you guys do for that? Does that add on timing cover and cam spud have a fuel pump lobe? Can’t remember. Also- iron heads- I know there are some ,, but not a bunch.

What about flat lifters, can you install those in an ls engine?
