Default buying an 04 5.3

I think I will get the most use from a ECSB, but I want a SCSB because it is a little quicker in the 1/4. What is the average stock time for a 04 5.3 ECSB vs. a SCSB truck. thanks... also, one last question.. what is the code for the 3.73 rear in these trucks. or maybe I should say what rear do you recommend I get in the truck. thanks again...

Default get a 2wd xcab

I just ordered a black Chev lt, full load, be here in 3 weeks, i'll put some 18"wheels/ tires, catback,lt headers, cold air box, tuned pcm and hotchkis bars on it and I've got a runner, if you have lot's of dough put a radix on it.
It's not guite as quick as a short wheel base but a little bit more useful.

enjoy David
