5.7 motor in a 00 dually

ok is this a good motor?? all i know is the 454s but it has 100k on it and its in a crew dually??? need opinions and is it worth 10g's truck looks clean in the pic its like thechads truck
same pewter color and tan interior jsut not lowered yet

n how is the gas mileage?

the 5.7 is the small block

ok i wont be towing alot with it but use it for a daily

they work good for towing down hill


I don't know why the auto makers even put small blocks in them
but then aging mine cam with a strait 6

my old 82 crew had a small block in it and did just fine, even with all the ca smog equip. when it fineally gave up I put a 366 in for some reason and wished I would have rebuilt the 350.

Same motor that was in TowNasty and I previously had a 99 crew cab with a 5.7. Im just not a fan of a big block, but im wierd like that.

We had a 99 model with a 350 in it and it got around the same mpgs (12-14) as the 454.

hmmm food for thought thanks fellas

i have a 1999 5.7 smallblock in my 1993 dually. i have no problems towing my camper anywhere, and it weighs 10,800 pounds. gas mileage is around 12-15 mpg. i am not a fan of the big block either. later, brian
