    Looks like you know your stuff. I just looked up the PCM and its for a 2001-2002. The number on the PCM is 12200411. The guy I got the engine from told me it was out of a Tahoe but he is not sure of the year. Well the PCM at least narrows it down to either 2001 or 2002

    there ya go. now i do believe in 02 they started to use MLS gaskets from factory. i think 01 still had graphite
    2002 Lightning - GT headed 5.5Litre w/ Twin 7665s
    2002 Silverado - 427Lsx w/ Twin gt4202s
    2010 Silverado crewcab Z71 - 5.3litre w/ procharger
    2000 Wrangler - 5.3litre with some stance
    2014 Xsport- 3.5 Eco boost
    412 Motorsports

    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

    Well I'm going take you guys advice and use it in my 55 Chevy Truck. I just purchased some books to learn about these engines, so I will be doing a lot of reading. I don't like nothing stock so I will be checking out how I can put some attitude in this little engine.
