Wondering if any of you guys could help me out with a technical question. Just wondering how difficult if would be to put a 5.3 vortec v8 in my 2006 colorado that currently has a 2.8 vortec 4cyl. Any help would be great. Thanks

that'd be one hell of a difficult swap, You'd have to swap the tranmission, then the driveshaft, then beef up the rearend. U'd need the computer for a 5.3 along with all the neccasary harnesses, and prolly have to beef up the frame.
