i read somewhere along the line on the interwebs a GM mechanic indicated that for every 10 lifter jobs he does, 7 or 8 of them are on 5.3's.Since I have a diesel, I am somewhat of a disinterested 3rd party, but as a general question are the 5.3 engines exhibiting any all or some of the same issues lifters or thrust bearings, of the 6.2? If you were buying one today, and you had a choice, would you take a 5.3 over a 6.2? Or is there really no difference and they are all a crapshoot.......
