Re: Question for you 5.3L guys
I think a coule of you are getting gvwr confused with curb weight on the tahoe. Google lists curb weight maxing out (4x4) as 5050 lbs. and gvwr as 6400. either way thats heavier than any c10.
also the 6.0 trucks generally weigh 1000 lbs more than the 5.3,s so they unfairly get a bad mileage review. I like the ls based engines but A 97 to 99 350 vortec is a great motor too. Remember that most 5.3s and 6.0s are iron block so the engine weight savings are small.
