if i end up going with a 5.3 i'm going to install an LS6 intake, a cam, and a yank 3600 converter. i'm wondering if my TR224 is too big for a 5.3 even with a loose converter. the TR220 would be optimal for a 5.3, but i already have the TR224 in the 346.

in my last 5.3 in my truck i had a comp 216/220 .525 .532 on 114. it was good for the truck but i want something more aggressive for the car.

TR224 specs: 224/224 .563 .563 on 112
TR220 specs: 220/220 .551 .551 on 112

Block off the back 2 . The front are connected and go to the radiator like they currently do.

i guess i'll just pinch them and fold them over a couple of times.
