Default 2000 model crankshaft question

Was it just the '99 6.0L crankshafts that were longer than the new ones? I'm going to order a converter and trans. soon and was wondering if my '00 5.3L has a normal crankshaft.

I don't want to be installing the new converter and find out it doesn't fit.

Thanks

John

John,
I measured my 2000 4.8 crank and it measured ~23-5/8". I have a stock LS1 crank laying around, and it was identical. But, some info I read says all the truck cranks were longer, not just the 99/00 6.0's and would not interchange. I will be contacting the the guy who wrote it to get some clarification on it. Not sure what year the LS1 crank is, but they are all the same anyway.

I'm probably good to go then. Let me know if you find out otherwise.

Thanks

99-2000 6.0s cranks are near 1/2inch longer flange than all other lS1 and Ls1 base motors.

Now that i think about it the 99-2k 6.0 cranks look like the flange length is near .500 but was about .300 more than the LS1 flanges
