Would a 5.3 with a higher gear (3.73) ratio pull better than my 5.7 with a 3.42?
Thanks
A 5.3/3:73 will pull grades better than a 5.7/3:42. Do you have the VIN? If so use this http://www.compnine.com/vid.php?vin=2gcec13t741270300

The info that comes up is for my 04 just enter the 06 VIN in & find what it came with.
