    The 5.3 to 6.2 swap is pretty hairy. The 6.2 has the benefit of a 6-speed auto that is not a direct swap either. For the cost of a used 6.2 with 6L80 and complete wiring harness and computer, I'd check into aftermarket block and crank combos for bigger inches as described above.

    You can get a 5.3L into the 5XX RWHP range, but you will need FI or spray to get there on a stock block and rotating assembly. I know people who have done so with a 76mm FMT or a 112HH Maggie...

    The real question is how much money you want to spend.
