    5.3 to 6.0 swap complete... But

    Hello, from Michigan

    I joined this forum a few years back, but just now decided to be active. I have a 2001 Yukon 2wd that I've been working on, and feel it's starting to become more than just a plain Jane SUV. From the 2003 sierra Front end swap to the BTR stage 3 cam. I am here to share my experiences like the...
