Thank you. I appreciate the reply. I have not yet come to a decision on a swap or repair. If I do a swap and buy a GM motor but to have the warranty it obviously has to be done by ASE certified so at that point I really don’t care to much who does it because it will have a warranty. Since I’m...
Hey Trey, the work you said you did, is that considered a AFM delete as well? Or is it keeping it as a AFM but stronger parts making it last longer. Sorry if that doesn’t make sense. I’m still reading through all the threads to piece it all together. I should have it all retained and deciphered...
Thank you for the advice. Yea I feel now that replacing an engine would be more work for sure and more money. I also wouldn’t need a shop with the hoist. I could do in my garage.

Thanks Trey for your response I appreciate it. I’m sure you will read my reply to Thrust. If I can ask you the same.

Our engine is going out in our 2017 5.3 Tahoe. It’s at the dealer now since they just put in a new transmission for $5700. Then they diagnose the engine .Chevy said it’s a lift arm and needs the whole top taken off to replace it all. Best to just change engine. They quoted me $11,000 for a...
Hello Bos.
I see you did an engine swap on your 2017 Tahoe. Was wondering if you were still around this forum? Would love to ask you a couple questions. Our engine is going out. Chevy said it’s a lift arm and needs the whole top taken off to replace it all. Best to just change engine. Are...
