The point of this thread is the personal experience with the 454’s or the 350 vortec. I’m interested in replacing my ECSB 350 TBI Z71 because my stepson is taking it over with a CCLB 4x4 of the same platform.
Vortec engines seem to need major repairs over their predecessors, but is that a fact? I’m only interested in the 5 speed transmission versions. I want real world facts about all engines in the crew cab (four full door) platform with a manual transmission.
