Great video i feel like your not very excited tho. You are talking about juicing up an engine and going fast!!! But the energy your bringing is like someone just died and you have to tell the bad news. Get hyped

I’m not here to get crunk, I’m watching to learn about an engine. Great video!

I just bought my first 5.3 in May and I’ve already got an S&B cai, deleted resonator, and ported 6.2 Intake and manifold by Chuy’s performance. I was researching what would be the next step to get this beast moving quicker and this is a great launching point. Great video and delivery

06 Silverado 5.3 upgraded maf, throttle body, cold air intake, and long tube header. It doesn’t like the upgrade getting maf codes, throttle body codes, lean codes, what we’ll help with this?

D - Aftermarket headers are likely causing your code. The only real option is to get a tune that disables the codes.

My L59 has close to $250k. Such a great engine; function over fashion gets you home.

How to know if the engine is a 5.3L Vortec? All certain year models have it? Cause im looking at a 2005 Silverado 1500 Ls and a 2007 silverado and wondering... Thanks

I use my 5.3 for towing. What can I do to add more low end torque? I already have a stage 2 cam, upgraded valve springs, push rods, etc, long tube headers, flowmaster exhaust, cold air intake, and I want more power. Thanks

We are screwed. New bills and testing can tell if it has been retuned. ANything other than the stock oem one inc trans is an automatic fail. Was just about to stroke my 5.3 when this happened. Leave it stock, not worth the hassle or get some gears.

Gears, supercharger or stroke it, go small on the cam if any. Heavy truck, small engine..unless you spend lots of $ most bolt ons on any car are a waste In Ca if it doesnt have the OEM tune inc the trans its an automatic fail now. Fun is illegal here.
