    Nope, that's why you see the guys going to 370 and 408 swaps always start with a 6.0 block. The 5.3L can only be bored to a 382 ci engine without serious money.

    4.8/5.3same block and heads

    5.3/5.7/6.0 same crank and rods

    4.8/5.3/5.7/6.0/6.2/7.0 are all the same size externally, all interchangable

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
