engine

I keep reading about the 5.3 engine and the trouble with AFM. However, I'm sort of confused as to when they fixed the issue. What year was it fixed? Furthermore, would a compression check be the easiest way to find out if the rings have the damage everyone is talking about. Thanks for your help.

Hello, I am new to the Forum, but excited to get involved and get this build under way. I have a 1999 Chevy Tahoe Z71 that needs a new engine. The question is what is the best way to go? I think I have ruled out an LS conversion, I just don't need another complicated project. The Tahoe is an...

Currently got a 1999 chevy tahoe. My old 350 is dying. So i want something new. Something bigger thinking of a 383, buying a new monster trans, still a 4l60E but want big horsepower gains thinking around 400? Any pre built engines that would just bolt to the trans? I still want it to be...

I have a 2002 Tahoe 5.3 that I bought new. It has 194,000 mile and it ahs been well taken care of. I had just replaced the water pump and took it on a long trip. Drove fine but notice oil pressure up around 65 psi when getting on it. It usually was always 50psi & never moved. Just recently now I...

I've recently moved overseas and my vehicle is somewhere in the Atlantic on a ship heading my way. I just found out that the country I've moved to requires a vehicle's engine block serial # in order to register it. I won't be able to see my Tahoe until AFTER I've registered it, so I'm trying...

Still runs good. Just put on new brakes, though may need to adjust the parking brake pedal or replace that cable. Engine is running well and would like to keep it that way. Any of you out there with suggestions of what needs to be done to keep it that way? Change oil regularly, rotate tires...

As the title suggests, i have a 95 tahoe 5.7L. Recently the service engine light came on while i was driving. The light only comes on when the truck is warm (bout 10-15 min into the drive). After parking for a few hours it goes away, i was on my way and again she warmed up and the light...

I have a 1999 tahoe that's ready for a new motor and I found one with low miles in a 1997 tahoe. Does anyone know if this is an easy swap? I would assume the motor will fit but will all the electronics match up? Will I need another computer? Any advise or recommendations would be great. Thanks

My Tahoe is a 2004 flex fuel 5.3 v8 tow package about 75,000 miles. All required maintenance is done on time if not before I use Amsoil products oil, trans, and power steering getting ready to flush brakes. Ok back to the problem I was close to empty when I filled up with 87 octane gas...

174k miles later, no oil pressure. Dropped the oil pan only to find good size chunks of shiny metal! Time for an engine swap. I'm trying to see what advice you all have with what crate motor out there is best for the buck. Can I legally upgrade to something better than the stock 290HP...
