FOund 99 Sierra 5.3 junk Yard

It has 180psi and they say its in good shape. 750 is the asking price. I think it a good start to swapping my 2.8. what do you think?

what does it come with? if its just a long block with nothing else, all the axtra parts will add up to a lot mroe money, then you still need a trans.

Re: FOund 99 Sierra 5.3 junk Yard

Price is good only if it's complete, with computer, wiring, TB, MAF, and a 4L60E. You can't use the truck water pump, oil pan, exhaust manifolds, alt bracket, so no sense worrying about those. You'd need an aftermarket hood for the truck intake manifold, so that part is your call. If you want the car intake, then you can't use the truck injectors or the truck fuel rails.
