Thinking of getting this truck it is a single cab 00 5.3 stick. They only want 6500 good or bad let me know
did they swap the motor? i could be wrong but i thought the 5spd only came with the v6 and the 4.8l
Thats what I thought, And the only way to find out is to pull the head and see the pistons are flat or dished..Quote:

Little bit easier to pull a plug than the head....Quote:

I would say if you go with it get a t56 stabbed in there ASAP...........
