I've got an entire donor S10 that had a 4 banger and a manual transmission (5 speed), so I've got almost everything I need. The only thing I lack is a transmission that will bolt up to the 4.3L V6. The one from the 4 banger has a different bell housing. Since V6 5speed S series trucks are very rare in the parts yards here, I'm wondering what else might fit. Are any other donors useful. I'm specifically curious about 4th generation F bodies (1996 ish to 2003 ish) with the 3.8L V6 and a 5 speed. Is that bell housing the same as the one for the 4.3L V6? Would a 5 speed from a 4th gen F body work in these trucks? I'd just keep hunting for that NV3500 if you're really serious about doing the swap. The early ones were based on the Buick 305cid V8's, with two cylinders missing. The 4th gen F bodies got the Gen-II 3.8L V6, RPO code L36. Basically the 3.8L V6 is to a 305cid V8, as the 4.3L V6 is to a 350cid V8.http://garantc.ru/userfiles/bosch-maxx-wfl-2000-manual.xml

The only thing I'm not sure of is whether at the Gen-II changeover on the 3.8L, did they switch to the SBC bell housing pattern. I'm just not sure which transmission they got, and whether it uses the same bell housing. The V8 F bodies definitely go the six speed T56 transmissions. I thought (though I haven't checked) that the V6's got five speeds of some kind. I'm pretty sure the 4.3 was the only mass produced GM 90 degree V6. The NV3500 really isn't as much of a unicorn as you make it out to be. Nowhere near as common as the automatic, but I seem to come across one at the pick n pull every month or two. The question here was the bell housing bolt pattern. After checking with the experts, here's what I found out. It's more than just the bell housing that is the problem. The five speeds are T5's, but they are different than the T5's in the S series trucks in several dimensions, and they won't easily fit into any S series truck. The shifter is located further back, and the tail shaft housing is different, putting the rear mount in a different location. So that's a no-go for me. It's one of those things that could be done with enough work effort, but probably isn't worth the trouble. The more interesting suggestion from one of my local experts was that maybe I could drop a 3.8L V6 (with the FWD bell housing pattern) in the truck I have here that no longer has the factory 4 banger, but has the manual transmission for the 4 banger. That might make an interesting project for some time in the future. So far, I've mostly resisted the temptation to use that truck for a parts yard, so it could be a viable project to put it back on the road. Which o2 sensor is it that needs to be replaced. I would like to do it myself to save some cash, but determining which sensor is bank 1 sensor 2 on my model seems to be a source of debate. A diagram for my. Just up and quits, period.

I know late 90's through early 2000s 1500 trucks did for sure, but what other combinations. Was there ever a Suburban in that configuration? What kind of MPG can one expect with the 4.3L engine? low 20's perhaps highway-only and highway gears? Chevy S-10. My uncle has an S10 with that combo in it. He's got over 200,000 miles on it and it's pretty trouble free. He says that motor actually scares him because it runs so well and can hit so and so mph in such and such gear. He is pushing 80 though so doing 55 in a 70 is fast for him. He managed 18 MPG once at 52 mph. I do not recall a Suburban ever having a manual trans at least from late 70's onward. The 1985 Sub with the 350 was slow as a dog. The 77 was pretty quick- the engine was quite stout and probably put out about 400 to 425 hp but tipped the scales at close to 6000 lbs. Not sure why you want a 5.3 and 5 speed, but maybe a S10 ? The 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500, 4.3, 4 speed auto 3.23 rear axle, rwd that my step grandfather has gets about 12-17 depending on traffic. He managed 18 MPG once at 52 mph. If you're gentle you can do FAR better than 18mpg on the highway, and not at 52mph either.On a trip it gets 20. I sold it st 300000 km on it. Last I hear it was over 500000 kms.The 2006 Chevy Silverado 1500, 4.3, 4 speed auto 3.23 rear axle, rwd that my step grandfather has gets about 12-17 depending on traffic. If you're gentle you can do FAR better than 18mpg on the highway, and not at 52mph either. He is in his 70's, he is the typical 25mph in a 30 mph zone putt putt type of driver.http://www.bosport.be/newsletter/3g3jv-omron-manual Most of his driving is city stop and go.My old 1989 f150 with a built 351w could only run 91 octane or higher.Same driving style and route. IIRC, fairly common for the NV3500 or 4500? 5spd manual gearbox. The second trans started whining at some point as well, but the truck was badly rusted by that point and sold as is. My 1995 I only kept 3yrs or so. My in-laws had an old Astro van with the 4.3 V6 and 5 speed. I remember them asking me to drive it one day.They lasted forever if you changed the synchromesh fluid. I agree. I had a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500, 3.9 with the 5 speed and I found a lot of stuff on the magnet the first time I changed it. I do not recall a Suburban ever having a manual trans at least from late 70's onward. Not sure why you want a 5.3 and 5 speed, but maybe a S10. There were late 80's Suburbans with 350's, 4-on-the-floor manual transmissions, and the dual shock front ends on the lot at the RCMP auction yard when I bought my 1988 Caprice there. Working at a fleet shop full of those Saginaw 4 speeds made me kind of want one. Please try again.Allow our technicians to inspect and replace your transmission mount using factory parts.

( January 2020 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) The fourth generation of the model line was introduced for the 2019 model year. In Mexico, heavy-duty versions of the Silverado use the Chevrolet Cheyenne name.http://charlescarteronline.com/images/4.2-inch-mortar-manual.pdfLargely the successor to the 2003-2010 GMT560 chassis, the medium-duty Silverado is exclusive to Chevrolet, with no plans for an equivalent GMC version. A small refresh for 2003 models was introduced in 2002, bringing slight design changes and an upgrade to the audio and HVAC controls. The latter 2006 and 2007 GMT800 production units used the name Classic to denote the difference between the first and second generation trucks.By the end of 1994, a final design was chosen and finalized for production in June 1995 at 36 months ahead of scheduled start in June 1998.Three cargo beds are available: a 69.2 in (1,758 mm) short box, 78.7 in (1,999 mm) standard box, and a 97.6 in (2,479 mm) long box. The short box is only available with the crew cab and extended cab.In 2000, a driver's side door option became available for the extended cab, giving it four doors, and the crew-cab body was added to the lineup in 2004. Output on the 5.3 L engine also increased to 285 hp (213 kW) and 325 lb?ft (441 N?m).The Silverado Z71 got an optional lighter composite box, with a suspension package for towing, but lacked the high-output engine. The C3 became the Denali for 2002, and Quadrasteer was added.In 2006 the Silverado received another facelift, similar to the HD version introduced in 2005 HD models. Its SUV counterparts retained the use of the pre-facelift sheetmetal.For 2002, the name was changed to Sierra Denali, but the specifications remained essentially the same except for the addition of Quadrasteer and GM changed from the 4L60E-HD to the 4L65E in conjunction with a 4.10 final drive gear ratio.It was a 4-wheel steering system that greatly reduced the truck's turning radius and improved lane changing while towing.It is based on the 1500 Silverado Extended Cab with Fleetside Box and features upgrades in the drive train and both exterior and interior appearance. It was equipped standard with the 6.0 liter Vortec High-Output V8 rated at 345 hp (257 kW) at 5200 rpm and 380 lb?ft (515 N?m) of torque at 4000 rpm coupled to a 4L65E four-speed automatic transmission. This was the same engine used for the second generation Cadillac Escalade. The SS debuted in 2003 with a standard All Wheel Drive setup with a 4.10 final drive gear ratio and 4 wheel disc brakes. In 2006, the AWD variant was dropped and the rear wheel drive was the only driveline layout available. The Silverado SS also comes with the Z60 performance suspension and 20 inch aluminum wheels. All the SS trucks in both 2 wheel drive and AWD used the torsion bar style front suspension for better handling. SS themed trucks were only available from the factory in Black Onyx, Victory Red, and Arrival Blue Metallic from 2003 to 2004. In 2005 Arrival Blue Metallic was dropped from the color choices and replaced with Silver Birch Metallic.It was available for both the Chevy and GMC 1500 series trucks. This special edition package (under option code B4V) included several options previously not found on the standard 1500 model, most notably the LQ9 6.0 L V-8 engine (the same used for the Silverado SS, the 2005-2006 GMC Denalis and the Cadillac Escalade ). The LQ9 motor was rated at 345 hp (257 kW) at 5200 rpm and 380 lb?ft (515 N?m) of torque at 4000 rpm, which was the same specifications shared in the SS models. The B4V package could only be ordered on extended cab standard box 2WD trucks. The 2004 models were equipped with the standard 10 bolt 8.625 rear end. The 2005 models were upgraded with the larger 14 bolt 9.5 rear end under RPO option AXN. The package also included one style of the newly introduced GM 20 inch wheels installed from the factory. This marked the first time the LQ9 engine was available for a two-wheel drive application. Unlike the previous years with the SS Package, interior choices ranged from basic cloth to fully loaded. There were also more exterior color options available with this package.This was because the Vortec Max package was intended for max trailer towing, while the Performance Edition was intended more for customers who wanted the Silverado SS mechanicals without the visuals of the SS. It was also made available (in addition to the extended cab) in the light duty 4 door crew cab models.Known within GM as the Parallel Hybrid Truck or PHT, it is not actually a parallel hybrid by the current definition, but a type of micro hybrid design. Besides the typical 12 V automotive battery the PHT uses three additional 14 V valve regulated lead acid ( VRLA ) batteries mounted under the rear seat to store and provide power. The truck uses a 5.3 L Vortec 5300 V8 for primary propulsion power. These trucks were also purchased back from customers for more than what they were worth in the late 2000s.Additionally, the extra reserves of power for the accessories make this truck well-suited to that market, where trucks often sit at idle for hours at a time.Later in 2005, the truck was offered at retail in Alaska, California, Florida, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Canada. The Parallel Hybrid Truck was discontinued for the 2008 model year with the release of the GMT900 truck line.The 1500HD, introduced in 2000, offered a Vortec 6000 V8 with 300 hp (224 kW) at 5200 rpm and 360 lb?ft (488 N?m) of torque at 4000 rpm with a Hydra-Matic 4L80E four-speed automatic transmission. Also available was the Vortec 8100 V8 with 340 hp (254 kW) at 4200 rpm and 455 lb?ft (617 N?m) of torque at 3200 rpm. The HD models were primarily used for towing and high-weight cargo.Built as either a 1500 or 2500HD Extended Cab Standard Box model with two and four-wheel-drive, the Professional was the ultimate contractors truck. The center console area provided an area to store PDAs, cell phones and laptop computers as well as extra charging points for them and an area to hang file folders. There were also extra storage trays and larger cupholders throughout the cab, including one temperature controlled cupholder. The exterior featured lower body cladding, Professional badging, and a full-chrome grille. These trucks also featured a standard bedliner, box-rail protectors, in-bed power outlet, and many optional accessories suited to tradesmen (ladder racks, toolboxes, etc.). The 1500 series came standard with the 5.3L Vortec 5300 V8, but the 4.8L V8 could be ordered with an option credit if so desired. 2500HD models came with the 6.0L Vortec 6000 V8 only. Customers could choose from either SLE or SLT decor.Towing capacity for the 2500HD is rated at 16,100 pounds (7,300 kg) with the gasoline 8.1L V8 with 3.73:1 rear and can haul 3,964 pounds (1,798 kg) in the bed depending on options. Towing capacity for the 3500HD is rated at 16,700 pounds (7,600 kg) and can haul 5,753 pounds (2,610 kg) in the bed depending on options. The addition of 4 wheel drive tends to reduce the towing and carrying capacity by 200 to 400 lb (181 kg), depending upon year and model. Other factors, such as options, can also affect these numbers.It takes styling cues from the 2007 GMT900 SUVs and the Chevrolet Colorado pickups. Like the GMT900 SUVs, these pickups also have greatly improved aerodynamics over their predecessors like steeply raked windshields and tighter panel gaps which improve fuel economy.Like its predecessors, the new Silverado offers buyers a choice of two-door regular cabs, four-door extended cabs (with front-opening rear doors that now open 170 degrees similar to the Nissan Titan ) and four-door crew cabs. GM also offers the trucks in the traditional two- and four-wheel-drive configurations.On its own, the V8 is rated at 332 horsepower and 367 pound-feet of torque. GM engineers say that combined output with the electric motors is 379 hp.The Vortec 6200 V8 was made available for LTZ and SLT models. Bluetooth was added to the equipment list, becoming standard on Denali, SLT, and LTZ and optional on SLE and LT, as was an optional rear vision camera. An integrated trailer brake controller, first available on the Silverado and Sierra HD for 2007, is now an option on 1500 series trucks. The XFE package was new for 2009, available only on Silverado 1500 Crew Cab LT 2 wheel drive models, it included the 5.3L Vortec V8, soft tonneau cover, aluminum wheels, and low rolling resistance tires.The Vortec 6200 V8 was given wider availability, now being optional on LT and SLE extended and crew cabs, completely supplanting the light duty Vortec 6000 V8 in the process. The new Z71 Appearance Package was optional on LT and LTZ, it included: body-color grille and front fascia, body color door handles and mirror caps, unique Z71 box side decals, chrome sill plates, and a unique Z71 gauge cluster. Two new exterior colors were added: Taupe Gray Metallic and Sheer Silver Metallic.This time the Silverado was given new grille and front fascia treatments for both LT and LTZ models. A newly redesigned touch-screen navigation radio was optional on LTZ, SLT, and Denali. Trailer sway control and hill start assist are now standard on all models. Cooled seats were made optional on LTZ and SLT and the woodgrain trim was replaced with brushed aluminum.The 6L90 6-speed automatic transmission is standard in all Heavy Duty models. The Allison 1000 transmission is paired with the optional Duramax V8 diesel.The front suspension incorporates new upper and lower control arms and new torsion bars tailored to one of five different gross axle weight ratings. Upper control arms are constructed from forged steel that is both stronger and lighter than the previous arms, while the new lower arms are cast iron to maximize load capacity. Using a unique torsion bar for each gross weight rating allows for better control over vehicle height, resulting in improved handling and better alignment for reduced tire wear. These improvements allow for up to a 6,000 pound front axle weight rating, allowing all 4wd trucks to accommodate a snow plow.The upper shock mount has been changed from a single stem mount to a two-bolt design to eliminate the possibility of squeaks and thumps.The design features 3-inch wide leaves, with front and rear spring sections of different lengths to reduce the twisting that can result in axle hop and loss of traction. The 2500HD uses a two-stage design with a rating of 6,200 lb (2,812 kg), and 3500HD models have a three-stage design with 7,050 lb (3,198 kg) and 9,375 lb (4,252 kg) ratings on single and dual-wheel models, respectively.StabiliTrak and side curtain airbags are optional on certain trim levels.GM dropped the 900 platform and changed to K2XX. The third generation Silverado 1500 has three gas engine options: 4.3 L EcoTec3 V6, 5.3 L EcoTec3 V8, or 6.2 L EcoTec3 V8. Chevrolet's MyLink touch-screen multimedia interface system will be available on most models. It will have A2DP stereo streaming technologies, Bluetooth hands-free telephone, USB hookups, and an input for an Apple iPod or iPhone. A Bose premium audio system, as well as a Bose surround sound audio system will be available on most models. OnStar will be standard on all models.The third generation Silverado uses aluminum on the hood, for the engine block and for the control arms in order to save mass. The truck's bed is made of roll-formed steel instead of stamped steel used by other manufacturers in order to save weight and gain strength. The third generation Silverado introduced the upmarket High Country edition which includes saddle brown leather interior, which is Chevrolet's first entry into the luxury market. A revised front end features styling cues from the 1980s-era Chevrolet C-Series Trucks, and, on Z-71 models, a Z-71 badge was added to the front grille. The first production Silverado completed assembly on April 29, 2013. The Silverado 1500 went on sale in May 2013 as a 2014 model, with the Silverado HD Series being available in early 2014 for the 2015 model year.In the past, several independent specialists imported and converted Silverado and GMC Sierra for Australian and right-hand-drive markets. The 2500HD and 3500HD were fitted with 6.6-litre Duramax diesel V8, the sole engine choice for Australia.The refreshed Silverado and Sierra received a new grille, new headlights and new front fascia, with design influences from the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado, as well as all-new LED tail lights on the 2016 Silverado LTZ and High Country, 2016 GMC Sierra SLT and Denali trim levels while the 2016 Chevy Silverado LT trim levels and below still have the pre-facelifted incandescent taillights along with the 2016 GMC Sierra SLE trim levels and below. Silverado 1500 LTZ and High Country, as well as Sierra 1500 SLT and Denali models equipped with LED headlights, can be optioned with the Intellibeam high-beam assist system. On October 1, 2015, HD Radio was added to the Silverado, Sierra, and their HD level models. Sierra's new colors include: White Frost Tricoat (1500 only), Mahogany Metallic, Crimson Red Tintcoat and Cardinal Red.Gasoline-powered models now have a capless fuel fill. Sierra HD now features standard HID headlamps on all trim levels. New colors include Graphite Metallic and Pepperdust Metallic (Chevrolet) or Dark Slate Metallic and Pepperdust Metallic (GMC).The SSV Silverado is available in 1500 Crew Cab form with either the short (5.5') or standard (6.5') cargo box. The 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 is the only engine option, and the truck is based on WT trim.Body color door handles, front and rear bumpers, and bodyside moldings provide a distinctive monochromatic appearance, while black accents, including belt moldings, front bumper skid plate, and B-pillar accents, enhance its bold attitude.They are the following series of Midnight, Midnight HD, Rally 1, Rally 2, High Desert, Custom Sport HD, Realtree, Special Ops, Alaskan (Available on HD series only), Redline and Black Out. The remaining Special Edition listed in the 2017 Chevrolet Silverado brochure were All Star Edition and Texas Edition.The reveal of the all-new Silverado was not expected until early 2018. For its debut, the Silverado 1500 was airlifted via helicopter onto a stage, where it was introduced to a crowd of Chevrolet truck owners and enthusiasts, as well as to the automotive press. Chevrolet NASCAR driver Dale Earnhardt Jr also spoke at the event.The model was unveiled as a Silverado LT Trail Boss 4X4 model.Additional features available on select trim levels include GPS navigation, SiriusXM Satellite Radio and Travel Link, OnStar with 4G LTE in-vehicle Wi-Fi, a Bose premium audio system with seven speakers, keyless access and push-button start, a remote starter system, heated and ventilated luxury leather-trimmed seating surfaces, a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, driver-assist technologies, a multi-angle camera system, and heated rear seats.Rally Edition is available on Silverado Custom and RST trims. The package features black Rally Stripes on the hood and tailgate, black CHEVROLET tailgate lettering, and black assist steps. The Midnight Edition features Bucket Seats with Console, special headlamp bezels, black dual exhaust tips, and black assist steps.This is the second-time Chevrolet and Realtree have teamed up to produce a special edition Silverado truck, having done so for 2016.The base engine on lower trim levels is the 285-horsepower, 4.3L EcoTec3 FlexFuel-Capable V6 gasoline engine. Standard on mid-level trims is an all-new, 310-horsepower, 2.7L Turbocharged Inline Four Cylinder (I4) gasoline engine that is the smallest engine available on a half-ton pickup, and features cylinder deactivation for improved fuel economy. Optional on most trim levels is the 355-horsepower, 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 gasoline engine, which is optionally FlexFuel-Capable, and features either a carryover Active Fuel Management (AFM) system, or a brand new Dynamic Fuel Management system (DFM), which now can shut off up to 6 of 8 cylinders. The availability of either AFM or DFM is dependent on trim level, with WT and Custom trucks available with AFM, and LT and above trucks standard with DFM. Optional on upper-level trims is a 420-horsepower, 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 gasoline engine with Dynamic Fuel Management (DFM). An all-new, 277-horsepower 3.0L Turbocharged I6 Diesel engine is also slated to become available in mid-2019, although availability of this engine has been delayed due to EPA certification. All engines are paired to either a 6-speed, 8-speed, or 10-speed automatic transmission, with a choice of either two-wheel-drive or four-wheel-drive (4X4 is standard equipment on Silverado 1500 Custom Trail Boss and LT Trail Boss trims, and optional on all other Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 models). For 2020, availability of both the 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 gasoline engine and the 10-speed automatic transmission will expand to most Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 trim levels.SiriusXM Satellite Radio, OnStar with 4G LTE Wi-Fi, a seven-speaker Bose premium audio system, HD Radio, GPS navigation, SiriusXM Travel Link, and a multi-angle camera system are all available depending upon the trim level selected. For 2020, Silverado and Sierra models add SiriusXM 360L compatibility.An all-new, ten-speed automatic transmission will come as standard equipment on gasoline-powered Sierra 1500 models. Availability of the previous 4.3L EcoTec3 V6 gasoline engine was not announced at launch.Additional features available on select trim levels include GPS navigation, SiriusXM Satellite Radio and Travel Link, OnStar with 4G LTE in-vehicle Wi-Fi, a Bose premium audio system with seven speakers, keyless access and push-button start, a remote starter system, heated and ventilated luxury leather-trimmed seating surfaces, a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, driver-assist technologies, a multi-angle camera system, and heated rear seats.The regular cab option is unavailable in other trim levels in the United States and Canada, as these trucks will appeal mainly towards fleet and commercial buyers. Regular cab models with a 6.5 ft (2.0 m) bed (on a 125.9 in (3,198 mm) wheelbase) and in higher trim levels are produced, but are only available for sale in Mexico and the Middle East.It is built at Navistar's Springfield, Ohio plant.The CUCV nomenclature was changed to Light Service Support Vehicle (LSSV) in 2001. In 2005, LSSV production switched to AM General, a unit of MacAndrews and Forbes Holdings. The LSSV is a GM-built Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD, Chevrolet Tahoe, or Chevrolet Suburban that is powered by a Duramax 6.6 liter turbo diesel engine. The various Silverados, Tahoes, and Suburbans that are used provide numerous platforms for different kinds of vehicles. The dashboard has additional controls and dataplates.There is also a ZH2 Chevrolet Colorado military version.Please help improve this section by adding citations to reliable sources.

Also known as the 8L90 and 8L45, the 8-speed pairs to rear-wheel-drive architectures in GM’s bread-and-butter products, including pickup trucks, SUVs, sports cars and luxury cars, and to say that it has a few issues would be a major understatement. Owners have complained far and wide about the 8-speed’s strange tendencies, such as waiting too long to upshift, downshifting at odd times and lurching when coasting or coming to a stop light.The plaintiffs assert the GM 8-speed transmission is defective, creating violent shakes, jerks, and a “hard shift” when selecting a gear. For its part, GM has filed 13 technical service bulletins concerning the unit, none of which remedied the issue. Following the lawsuit, more owners have spoken out over the issue, and we’ve even heard from our own readers about it on our forums. In a press release, the automaker said it made “enhancements designed to improve shift quality, while also adding a new centrifugal pendulum absorber torque converter” to improve smoothness. The new revised transmission was assigned RPO code MQE, replacing the M5U 8-speed unit on the half-ton Silverado and Sierra, but not (yet) on other GM products like full-size SUVs or mid-size pickups. What it should have done is replaced the GM 8-speed transmission outright with its new 10-speed automatic (jointly developed with Ford) in every vehicle application.
