Default 5.3 Ho
Anybody had any experience with the GM 5.3 HO crate motor? I know, 6.0 is much preferred, but it just sounded interesting when i saw it on the SD website.

That engine from SD is not the L33 engine.
looks like just a cammed 5.3.
no mention of an aluminum block or higher compression or LS6 heads.
