Go for the 6.0, it is only a couple hundred more and so worth it. I got a 2002 LQ4 with 50k and a complete harness and computer for $1300.

apparently it is a 5.3....the number under the barcode on the block and the head started with 10SHC. Apparently the SHC is the three letter code that identifies it as a 5.3. Thats what a guy at the chevy dealership said. Anybody else have any input about this?
