Every 5.3 I have owned (and its quite a few) has had a slight knock on 87. 89 did not do this. There is 1 station that has 93 vs 91 close that I would use. I really didn't notice anything more then the knock, if that helps.
This is my 20 Elevation. I traded in the RST for what I paid for it and I have to say I like this color a lot better. Looked at a Silverado in the same color but I stole this truck!
