So we got this 2009ish Sliverado donor truck with a 5.3 (LMG) Gen 4 with zero oil pressure.

So today we’re gonna drive into firing this low mileage mouse.

This LMG 5.3 is a DOD Gen 4 LS that came with flex fuel injectors. So during this video, we can see a couple of things;

1) Does it have oil pressure?
2) How to carb swap a LS?
3) How to run a carb LS?
4) Can you carb swap a DOD?

Hope you guys enjoy this video! I’ve been meaning to post this one a week ago but day job got the best of me. Look forward to the next video! We gotta put the 5.3 into something right?
