Let's discuss the GM 5.3L Ecotec3 engine for a minute that's in the new Silverados and Sierras.
355 HP and 383 ft lb torque.
I'm familiar with the 5.3L Vortex...I had one in my Yukon and man..I miss that truck. Awesome engine! Mine only had 285 HP..But great engine.
I've had friends tell me that you didn't want a GM V8 that automatically goes to 4cylinders...Too many problems. True?
I'm truck researching a little....Either want a F150 5.0 V8 or Silverado 5.3L V8. How do these compare for those that have experience with either?
