So what year should I have them look for, and what is considered low mileage on a 5.3 as I have never owned one? I have already purchased dirty dingo sliders, as well as the CPP sheet metal perches. Thanks for any info.

i got a 2004 5.3 with the dbw, i like it, its responsive, but I'm having a hard time getting use to it...i have a lot more power now and not used to it...its pretty sensitive, i know on the 04 (mine anyways) it has the returnless fuel system and its pretty easy to install
