Re: 5.3 and bore size
The most I have seen is .120 over that would bring it up to a 5.7L or bore would be 3.899 = 99.05mm. Stroke is 96.12mm = 3.78.

Re: 5.3 and bore size
Are the 5.3 and 6.0 completely different castings? Does the 5.3 have sleeves or water passages that limit bore size? I just want 4.000" bore and would like to use what I already have. If not I guess I have a spare for the wife's Tahoe.

Re: 5.3 and bore size
people in the car section are using the iron 6.0 blocks like crazy now, it seems to be the new hot ticket, a 5.3 seems to be worth prety much nothing, that right there tells me you can't bore it to 4.00.
get a 6.0 and bore it to 4.040, thats what alot of people are doing now, along with a 4" stroker crank or bigger <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> makes for a bullit proof moter that can take alot of abuse.
