The 2000's are kind of strange...some are the older boxy style trucks and then some are the newer more rounded style. The older style is derived off the LT1 which it must be in your case if you know for sure that it's a 5.7L. The newer ones are based on LS motors but they're 5.3L or there was an option for the escalades to get a 6.0L as well.
