I know everything involved in the swap, but my question is, stock for stock with all the same accessories, intake, exhaust, cam, ect... Would you "FEEL" the difference in power / weight of the 5.3L vs the LS1?

unlikely, maybe a little out of the hole. judging by these dyno #s i really doubt you'll feel the difference. And any difference felt you can make up for with the money you saved buying a 5.3
