Re: 5.3 swap build so far
It might, a lot of it depends on the gear ratio, tune, and how you drive

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
Depends on your trans type and tire sizing, one may mathematically work out better for ya. 3:73 12-bolts are easy enough to find, so simplicity might lead you there.

Re: 5.3 swap build so far
id say 3.73's would be good to go, should pull good, and not be too high on the rpm's at highway speeds
