Just curious if anyones got a diagram that shows how the interior heater ducting is layed out? Prefferably the pass side where the flapper piece and heater core sit. I Have a basic idea of how it goes together but details would be helpful.

Are you wanting something like this ?...

Yes, that's VERY helpful. I didn't actually think anyone would have one haha. Figured I'd throw the question up here anyways, but thanks a lot.

I also am wondering if anyone has a pic or something to show how the pieces are positioned inside of the car. Like with the dash assembly out of the way. That part I can probably figure out on my own but pics never hurt!

This is off topic, however whitedevil did you find the 5.3 engine to be worth the work to swap it?

It's not actually in yet but I have it and the T56 sitting on a stand. The way that I see it is you will probably spend around the same to make the 5.3 fit as you would with just getting an LS1 since you need the pan, accessories, & intake manifold off an LS1.......it may come to just a little bit cheaper than going with an LS1. But the reason I chose the 5.3 is for it's ability to handle boost. If I was going all motor, I would use a 5.3 as my last resort. LS1's pop around 7-9 PSI though. I know some people get lucky, but these are general terms. 5.3's however are proven to handle 15+ PSI and 500+ RWHP with no problems on a stock bottom end. In this sence, it's better to go 5.3. It's really up to what you want out of the engine and what it's going to be used for. 5.3's are awesome motors to play with and they are great for an entry LSx motor to play with and learn on.
