I have a complete still bolted together 5.3 4l60, t case out of a 2009 Colorado with harness and ecm/tcm. The engine will need rebuild, has piston slap noise, transmission and t case work great. Truck has 184k, worked fine just going big power. $4000 OBO located in Washington state. 509-520-6901
I'm looking to buy a crew cab Colorado or Canyon 4x4 automatic with the 5.3L V8. I believe these were made from 2009 - 2012. It needs to have A/C and cruise control and prefer cloth interior. 100k miles or less preferred but higher miles would be considered depending on the condition. Since I...

Ok so i have a 2012 Colorado 3LT with the 5.3, i want to put in the Texas Speed 220/220 .581/.581 cam and was wondering if since i will be in the motor if i need/should upgrade the lifters, springs, and pushrods...
I'm loving all the buzz about the 2015 355's. But, GM's killing it by not offering a V-8. No ZQ-8s? OK the 5.3L is a lot of CI, but why not a 4.8L? Every review about the 355 says "average truck overall. But. does offer a V8". So they finally make a great truck, & them dump the V8...
Hey y'all. I really like this forum. Excited to be a part of it. I just bought this truck 5/2/2014. Wasn't looking for a 355 specifically. But, when I saw this baby I pounced on it. 4x4 & V8 with only 10,563 miles at $3.5K under blue book. Hell, the thing is still under the 3yr/36,000...
Nation hope everyone is well . Ive been trying to do a lot of research on 5.3 turbo builds, there is so much out there its mind boggling!!! On the forum and off, i came across this build called (BIG BANG THEORY) By Hot Rod, Custom Roadsters, Classic Muscle Cars & Trucks - Hot Rod Magazine I read...
Well I'm slowly gathering info on a gen lll 5.3 swap in my 06 reg cab Colorado, and I just have a question about an ls6 intake swap on a vortec truck style motor.. what would need to be done to do this swap? I have read in ls1 tech and whatever else came up on Google but didn't really know if...
This last Saturday I traded my 09 reg cab Colorado with a 4 banger for a 09 Colorado crew cab 2wd with the 5.3. I am interested in lowering it in the future but I am not familiar with the suspension set up on the new truck. The rear axle is under the leaf springs and it has a fairly high ride...
So I thought that I'd put a buying guide together that we could sticky for those that are shopping for a custom cool air intake (CAI) for their 5.3L truck.
Let me know if I missed any and I'll update this post.
All prices listed are MSRP, you'll be able to find them at a lower cost if you...
