Built for GM truck, SUV, and van owners who need the right 5.3L LS replacement, matched by application details instead of guesswork.
This is a stock-replacement reman long block built for the exact application family shown on this page, not a carbureted turn-key hot rod package.
This version is aimed at 2014-2020 Chevy Silverado, Suburban & Tahoe; 2014-2020 GMC Sierra & Yukon. Fitment still needs to be confirmed by year, VIN/application details, and platform-specific hardware.
Match the year range, vehicle application, and the correct engine/application details for this listing: L83. 5.3L GDI; with VVT and DOD; ATK/JEGS Q&A says AFM is not disabled or deleted on this stock rebuild.
Yes — this 5.3L GDI version is listed with VVT and DOD, and current JEGS Q&A says the AFM/DOD system is not disabled or deleted on this stock rebuild.
Yes. The listed selling price is for the engine itself; the core charge is separate and is handled through the reman core-return process after the correct rebuildable core is returned and accepted.
These were chosen from the current ready-to-ship / active-availability supplier flow, but live availability can move quickly, so we verify final stock status when your order is placed.
Yes. GOAT will help confirm the correct year range, VIN/application details, electronics, and stock-style fitment direction before you place the order.
Manufacturer-backed reman warranty coverage applies. The current warranty page lists gasoline engines for automobiles and light trucks under 11,000 GVW at up to 4 years / unlimited mileage, but final terms should still be confirmed at the time of order.
