Yup, 100 hp out of a cam tune and heads is fairly easy. Depending on the cam, you can get even more. You can get 100 extra out of a 5.3 with a good exhaust, tune and cam. Ls engines respond very well to mods. Chris

It could be the fuel pressure regulator. Mine did the same thing and it turned out to be the fuel pressure regulator.

I did find a high pressure hose made by hypalon that is rated for 0 - 115 bar normal operation and a 500 bar tear strength. Converted 115 bar is 1667 psi. I don`t know what the application of this hose is for but it is a heavy duty rated steering line. I would be surprised to find out that a power steering pump makes that kind of pressure.

Most larger auto parts "places that sell large truck, farm tractor, or industrial that make hydraluic hoses and can test them. The pressure on a hydrualic line is going to be from several hundred pounds of pressure to 1000 lbs. compared to fuel lines or atf lines in the 100 lb range. A power steering pump can put out over 500 lbs of pressure and a small leak will make a mess real quick.

The 500 psi seems exaggerated. I wouldn`t imagine it being that high but I can`t say for certain. I have worked Airplane hydraulic systems and have seen what high pressure hydraulic lines look like and the one on my truck doesn`t look anything like those. It doesn`t seem it could handle that much pressure. I think the power steering pump works more off of volume flow than pressure. ...

I just did what you want to do...And it can be done, your going to need an adapter bracket if you want to keep your cruise control @ Overdrive., Also you might not be able to use the same hoses for your heater, as the holes in the intake may be different, and sensors will have to mount in different places.. Other then that its a pretty straight forward swap, your not using a computer ...

NO the 5.7L wasn`t known for having big problems. I had a tranny shop try to tell me my high performance cam was tearing up my transmission because he didn`t want to honor his warranty on my 97 Z-71. You didn`t say how many miles are on it. I see your profile shows 135k miles on it. That is when my tranny went out on my Z-71. Then the idiot that built it put the wrong size check valve ...
