Re: 5.3 help
Yeah, 60 a week in gas sucks. $400 for engine and ecu, harness is a pretty awesome deal.

Re: 5.3 help
flaming I dont know that you would save gas money....I have a 5.3 on my truck and still pay around 60. a week on gas... d*mn right foot doesnt let off lol..... by the way I bought mine in san antonio where I live 900 for the complete engine with harness and acc... etc etc,, but only had 30k miles and got to hear it run b4 they pulled,,, I had decided to use the original 700r4 but then decided to go back and buy the 4L60E with 17k miles , for and additional 400 from the same guys,they sold me a transm from a different newer vehicle , and in case you dont know... some here know,,,, he sold me a 2008 trans. even though I told him I needed a 2005 4L60E and it went out after 200 miles,,, they took my truck to an independent transmission shop to make sure it wasnt the harness... and they figured, it went out because the transmission was a year too new... anyways they change the valve body and a few other things to the 2005 model and overhauled all back together and all for FREE..all I am trying to say is make sure the people your buying from have a good reputation..... any wayss.. good luck

Re: 5.3 help
I'm just curious, how many miles a week do you normally drive? What kind of mileage does it get now?
