HOW TO: LT HEAD SWAP AN LS. GEN V L83 HEAD SWAP ON A GEN 4 5.3L L33. HOW MUCH HP ARE THEY WORTH?

[@corvettejohn4507]

Would like to have seen a test of the L33 with an LS cam with the same cam specs as the hybrid cam so we can see what difference is caused strictly by the heads.

[@harleyheil]

Agreed. It lost me when the put a cam in the 5.3 that wasn’t close to stock. If that doesn’t exist, a cam of similar specs should’ve been used with the ls heads.

[@filiptrojanek5083]

This test needed to included a cam similar in size to the hybrid cam but tested with the LS heads. I would suspect that only a fraction of the power increase was due to the LT heads especially on a small 5.3L engine.

[@Dane33781]

Different heads can react differently to the same cam. You can't always have an apples to apples comparison.

[@AustinRBa]

I'm curious how this stacks up with just buying some AFR's or other comparable aftermarket heads. Of course those will probably cost more than the LT heads from a junkyard, but having to run special hybrid cams that will limit options. And I'd imagine future availability of these cams will be...questionable. Definitely interesting to see an answer to the question that so many of us have wondered!

[@richardholdener1727]

those questions are why this video exists

[@BLKMGK4]

I'd think buying a full on LT motor of some vintage and going crazy with it might also be a terrific alternative.

[@Turbogto_guy]

So in other words you compared a stock motor to a head swap and cam swap. Pointless test. Literally pointless because you don’t know what the power increase was from just the heads. I guess this is to be expected at this point. Smh.

[@stellingbanjodude]

@@Turbogto_guyyou can’t do the test you described and had you been listening you would understand that. The LT head uses a different valve layout, thus a LS cam will not work. An LT camshaft won’t work either due the the length is longer. It has to be a combination of both, an LS style cam with LT lobe layout. There is only one on the market and commercially available . You guessed it, the BTR camshaft. So no this wasn’t pointless test. The LT heads are way better than most premium ported and polished LS heads, so do some research before you look like a pontificating pretentious person.

Subtract 10% then another 10-15% for drivetrain and your back to 290 wheel.

[@nintendogamer5472]

​@@Carado5150the percentage thing is not accurate as drivetrain loss is a fixed amount, say it robs 30hp for drive train loss it would be same loss on a 300hp engine and a 1000hp using a percentage would not be accurate as 10% on the 300hp engine would be 30 but somehow same drivetrain would somehow take 100 HP on the more powerful engine.

[@AccuSol-ERN]

I agree with top shelf aftermarket "regular" LS heads being the way to go here. You get the flow you need for big power........without the hassle of keeping track of the hodgepodge of different parts needed. In today's world the aftermarket seems to be pretty quick with offering gearheads the new power parts they desire........you just have to spend the coin. Long gone are the days of garage tinkering to fab up big horsepower parts. Unless you are racing in a class that requires ALL factory parts........I just don't see the point.

That custom cam was quite large, 33x / 34x... put a large cam like that in the stock 5.3L and it would bump up a lot in the high RPM range also.

[@timothybayliss6680]

Its almost identical to ported factory castings. Earlier this year Richard published an article building a 5.3 that had Katech 706 heads, LSXR intake, 234/247 625/605 cam and 1 7/8 headers that made 509hp. Those heads were CNC ported with factory valve sizes. The Gen5 heads are probably worth 30-40hp but the CNC program from Katech costs less than the hybrid camshaft.

[@jonstapleton76]

I know the bores would line up, but do the head bolts?

[@andrewcammer2535]

It's a neat comparison, but there's such a dramatic difference between the two combinations aside from the cylinder heads that it really doesn't tell us much about what we're most interested in, which is how much better are the heads themselves. The biggest question anyone contemplating this type of setup should be why? If the goal is to be different and unique, then maybe it's a good way to go - outside of that there are conventional ways to make that kind of power on that kind of displacement that won't require so many one-off type of parts. Neat to see it done, not real practical to repeat.

[@kennethpowers8995]

Those LT heads flow great and it’s not all that hard to build a hybrid. If you can snatch up a set of the LT heads for cheap it’s a worthwhile option. Then you just need a cam and a Gen V pattern intake, which you would do a cam and intake anyway even if you went full LS so that’s not extra expense. Aside from that you just need some plugs for the DI ports in the LT heads and you’re basically good to go.

[@richardholdener1727]

custom hybrid cam is much more than LS cam, you also need, rockers, pushrods and exhaust-the hybrid head swap is very expensive

[@kennethpowers8995]

@@richardholdener1727 I forgot about the rockers being different. Headers I wasn’t really thinking about because you would buy a set for whatever setup you’re doing heads on anyway. (Hopefully) Without looking at the flow numbers for Lt heads vs LS heads it really seems like more of a conversation piece at the end of the day then just to say you’ve done it.

[@kennethpowers8995]

BTR makes a decent cam with the swapped lobes for ~$400. I don’t think that’s too bad. Another thing I didn’t consider though is the Right head doesn’t sit flush with the block, meaning you can’t just reuse your LS accessories. That is something I was unaware of too. It seems it’s still a more budget friendly option to just put a nice set of aftermarket or even ported factory LS heads vs doing the hybrid build.

If we used a 6.2 , and matched the rec LS heads against the Lt heads do you think the Lt heads would out power the LS heads

[@timothybayliss6680]

Probably by a little bit. The LT1/L86/L8T heads have a smaller chamber and have a bit better design. They also use a 1.8 rocker but those are available for rec port heads. I think if you normalized the test as much as possible, same rocker ratio, same cam profile, use a holley hi-ram on both sets of heads, there is a rec port and lt1 hi ram, same header size from same manufacturer, there would be less than 20hp difference. If you swapped pistons and had the same compression ratio it would be even smaller than that. The Gen5 is a bit better head, and a chamber 10cc(?) smaller. The smaller chamber is a full ratio of compression. The actual airflow and chamber design isn't really worth any real power.

[@davidreed6070]

@@timothybayliss6680 what I was thinking about is the short side is laid back to much to turn the fuel. I think the fuel will separate from the air and slam into the chamber wall instead of turning.
