Sorry to just jump in here with such a low level question guys, I thought I would throw this out there, then go back to searching...You have a TON of info here! heh

Anyways, I am going to be picking up an L33 5.3L shortly and am looking at available Trans options...Ideally I would like to keep a manual (4500 perhaps?)..... I know the 5.3, 5.7, 6.0 has very many parts in common and I "think" by mixing and matching I can bolt up to a manual trans...

Anyways, if you guys can shed some light on this for me it would speed up my search.

It may be that I have to run an auto as so many other 5.3L owners have.

Thanks a lot,

Joey

you should be able to find a manual trans out of a 6.0 truck. i dont know however if the crank will take a pilot bearing being from an automatic vehicle.
