    Another 6.2 for 5.3 swap going on.

    I recently did a similar swap. If you decide to take the oil pan off be prepared to take the front cover off and do them together. Consider installing new knock sensors as well.

    Grounding issues?

    I would guess water in the knock sensors But the ground is easy to check its on the bottom drivers side of the engine toward the front. Below the pS pump. Just remove clean and reinstall.
