Does anyone know of a swap thread or website about swaping the vortec 5.7 to the vortec 5.3? What about the tranmission? I might as well replace that with a new one. Will I have any problems going to the 5.3 tranny 4x4? Thanks Nick -------------------- 2002 Sierra 1500 2wd Ext Cab / Ext Bed - 5.3 automatic - 3.73 w/ G80 - tow package Current - KN intake system, tool box, small wench on custom wench bumperett Future - fender flares, 3" level / lift kit, nerf bars
