Man, go with a 6.0L. All of your accessories, wiring, etc will drop right on the 6.0L off of the 4.8L. If you're going to upgrade, you might as well go with the best out there. You can pick up a good 6.0L for the price of a 5.3L. I swapped my 4.8L for the 6.0 and have loved it ever since. You'll be glad you made the swap.
