    The 5.3 votec isn't an ls? Weird I thought that's the one everyone is swapping cause it's in all their trucks from like 96+

    That’s just cause people like to sound cool and fit in. The iron/aluminum block truck engines are not LS. They are a LQ4/9

    the LS is what came in corvettes/Camaro/SS’s and others. There’s so many LS motors but a 5.3 and 6.0 from a truck are not them.

    I had a buddy in high school that had a new GMC 4 door 1500 with the 6.0
    That little thing was cool. I think it was called like the Vortec HD or something

    Nah they’re badass for sure. Chevy can build a motor better than anyone else without a doubt. But I was just saying that LQ4,LQ9, L76, LM7, etc. are all truck motors.

    people still say LS swap and have a 5.3 but that’s just cause it sounds cooler and easier to explain than using the actual engine code.

    Yep.

    Here's a bright idea... Let's put the distributor behind the water pump. What could go wrong?

    Try that with the Ferd now. Won't be much of a delay. Gasser, non-dually trucks are always on the most-stolen lists. You just decided to buy the albatross truck last time. :p

    I was confusing the 5.2L that's in the newest HighPo Mustang. Not quite a 5.3....
