Just wondering what GM is doing with the 5.3L H.O engine. What truck is this going in? The standard 5.3L is still avaliable too. Just wondering if anybody knows.

Well yeah, but never heard of a 5.3 HO. There is a 310 hp version that is going in 4x4's only and then there are the 6.0 VHO trucks. Haven't heard of a 5.3 HO though.
