Default express engine to suburban?
hello


does anyone know what is the main diference of suburban 2007 5,3 flexifuel and
express van 2009 5,3 flexifuel?

suburban engine code is in vin 3 and express 4

my suburban 6 silinder coompression is 4 others are 11-12
i think it is cheaper to change engine than reapir the old one

Best regards

the express might be the iron block with aluminum heads vs the all aluminum that burbs are. They are 4 variants of the 5.3L Gen IV motor...
