Means you got a 5.3 not a 6.0. Too bad it wasn't a B.
The 8th digit in the vehicle identification number # or vehicle identification #? I think it means you dont have flex fuel, at least, thats typically what i see when i do a part search.
Thanks CJ.
I wish mine had a 2
Thanks for the input guy's - heres some info to help out anyone looking.
