Who knows...I been buying up 8.1's cheap because of it. I now own a mid 90's dually. It is getting an 8.1. The silverado. 8.1 an 92 s10 which I am making my gas mileage beast. And I just bought a 2000 sierra. I am strongly considering doing something with since i bought a complete torque tube corvette 6 speed drive train and suspension to put in s10. But man 8.1 with a corvette suspension in a truck. I got a lot of options when i get back from deployment
