+bruteman45 yea to be honest, I think the 392 in the ram would dominate chevys 6.2 silverado and fords 6.2 raptor lol

[@michaelbyrd5573]

Owned two 5.3 trucks. Both 4wd crewcab 373 gear with the infamous g80. Current Sierra was lq9 (6.sLo)swapped along with the pcm tuned (mail order tune). It's night and day difference between the 5.3 including the 1st 5.3 I had which was also pcm tuned. In saying that I'll also say the 6.2 is night and day between any factory 5.3 Perhaps check your drivetrain. 8 speed trans is faster than 6 speed and most people miss the glove box decal which tells you everything from paint codes to what differential gear set their truck has. My advise is to throw on some corsa /borla mufflers, airaid cai and long tubes would really help a pcm tune achieve maximum results. You'll achieve better fuel efficiency and best of all... When you have a Ecco or whomever you want to get around you will be able to capitalize AMERICA

[@DuramaxSilverado06]

Who the hell would say there isnt a difference? 5.3 has 355hp and 383 torque. 6.2 has 420hp and 460torque. I can tell just from this it would blow a 5.3 out of the water

[@ajlarson1000]

Lol Ikr I had experience with 5.3 silverado and a 6.2 and the 5.3 is sooo weak, and the 6.2 will spin up in second gear.

[@renebt2207]

I literally test drove the 5.3 and 6.2 today and i find it to be true. I wonder if the fuel in the 6.2 was at 89 or something.

[@robhuckell3677]

Of course the 5.3 will seem “weak” it’s .9l smaller and makes a significant less amount of hp, but what it lacks in power it makes up for in fuel economy. 5.3s are not slow by any means, pretty quick for a truck if you ask me, but the 6.2 is just another level of power.

[@MrDevourtoSurvive]

the 5.3l can really be improved a lot with a re-tune. its programed to drive like shit to help sell more 6.2l's

[@sheldondodson8423]

i have a 5.3 that will spin in second gear, and yea the 5.3 will feel weaker because it has less hp.

[@arielramirez161]

I really like my 2017 silverado with 6.2 and that thing is a amazing!!!

[@secritweapin2371]

I will agree. I like how it stays above 4grand shifting. I have the 5.3, however I am lifted.. still yet I have performance upgrades to compensate for the lift. impressed.

[@anthonymacneil2279]

Bought a new 17 High Country 6.2L and there's no comparison to the 5.3L totally two different engines power wise. Added an Elite RX catch can and clean side separator and performance air filter and intake tube. The truck calls for premium folks don't cheap out with regular it's not worth it for a few bucks. Also use only Amsoil Signature Series and filter since new it's the best in my opinion. The truck is a beast and top end is crazy. Try a 6.2L and I'll guarantee you won't want a 5.3 and to boot it averages 23 MPG.

[@r2ba435]

Anthony Macneil I'd still take the vortec 6.2 over a newer 5.3.

[@polandknight2012]

I LOOOOOOVVVVEEEE the SOUND of the GM Vortec (V8 Line-up ONLY.) They sound good. And, I’m not surprised they “Break-In” differently. But, I HAVE driven a 5.3 with the 8L90. The newest body style. The ‘19 and up. It did good during the Test drive. But, I AM curious to see how it does, after being broken in, about a thousand miles on the O-D. Only reason I won’t go with the 6.2, I have no need for the power. If I wanted to go with something to tow 13,000+ Lbs, I’d go with the 3/4s with Gas, because they say not to max out the tow vehicle. It’s not just about towing. You ALSO need to be able to STOP whatever it is you may have in tow. 🙏🙏

It felt okay off the line, but at 60 it could not find its way out of a wet paper sack! My previous truck was an 06 Sierra with the 5.3 full dyno tune and intake.

Jesus that hauled

[@PumpkinKingXXIII]

I got my 2016 6.2 three months ago, traded in my 09 crew with a 6.2.and the 6l80e. It's got 3,300 miles on it and my 09 was faster. And I got the same mileage if not better and the 09 didn't have dod. If I don't put my foot into it the 8 speed acts like it doesn't know what gear to shift into. I'm very disappointed and this will probably be my last gm truck. I stopped using my gm credit card so I won't have that to tempt me. When there was 10% off msrp, $2,000 gmc loyalty, $1,000 off for regional discount and the $3,896 back from my credit card. Kind of stopped me from looking at others.

[@guy6751]

Pumpkin King XXIII It's a fairly new transmission so it's gonna take a bit for them to get it dialed, anyone who buys a vehicle equipped with a new engine or transmission should know this. I would also be more willing to buy a GM vehicle now then I would have been in 09, the quality of their vehicles have improved greatly since they recovered from 08, and if their sales continue to grow I would say the quality will improve more.

[@robhuckell3677]

with the last two gears being a little bit lower (ratio wise, making the top end speed faster with stock differential) so that its still good on gas, but in those lower gears it really pulls

[@Codyrosa]

a brand new motor doesnt need to be "broken" in.. its when you toss rings into an old bore without boring it that the rings need to "break" in.. and adjust to fit the bore. On a fresh bore the rings are seating perfectly.. if not then someone did a shit job lol. Also if a 5.3 feels like it has more power its probably the gearing. 6.2 has more hp and torque.. give them both the same gearing and the 6.2 should smoke the 5.3

[@guy6751]

Cody Rosa New engine do need to be broke in, if you've ever bought a new car then you know after about 1500 miles you will gain a small bit of power and fuel mileage. It's not as noticeable as with a rebuilt motor but the engine components still have to mate to each other for maximum efficiency.

[@ronmower3694]

guy6751 please.rokkie

[@jewllake]

oh yes!!! It does need breaking in. When I test drove my new 06 Monte Carlo SS with the 5.3 it would not creep in idle. Now at 22K miles it will creep even in a slight incline.

[@joshalright1225]

And with newer vehicles ecms a brand new car will need time to fine tune its self to your driving and conditions like air temperature colder air is much more dense and so the ecm will create its own map for the overall conditions

I was wondering the same because I own a 2016 silverado 6.2 and it doesn't accelerate as fast as this truck.

Yeah, guess you could call it tuned because I had removed the Speed Limiter and recalibrated for different tires, but added no power or modified the shifting. Truck accelerated exactly as stock minus it would pull well beyond the 98MPH governor.

Straight from C&D Denali 6.2 test..."Either way, the 6.2-powered Sierra is a seriously quick beast, and the V-8 sounds fantastic at full throttle." I think it's just you trying to stir the pot. truck truly sounds great under hard throttle.

6.2L is just a much better engine than 5.3L all together.

[@robhuckell3677]

Jay P just out of curiosity what makes you think that?

[@JsGarage]

l83 is a dog in comparison. The l86 is a better, larger displacement motor. It has serious power in contrast to the 5.3L and responds to tunes and/or boost much better than a 5.3L. There is a reason the 5.3L is only found as a base v8 option in GM trucks. 6.2L on the other hand is found in GM performance cars with slight variation. I would never buy a silverado with the lazy 5.3L. I have driven several and the models especially with the 6 speed are lazy. 8 Speed helps it out but it is still the lowest powered v8 in the half ton industry. GM needs to increase power levels since they don't want to offer the 6.2L outside of flagship models. Sure you can mod a 5.3L but why bother?

really car and driver pulled faster times with a 14 6.2 with the 6 speed then the ecoboost. I had the 2012 sierra denali with the 6.2 and while I agree the newer 5.3 isn't to much different I still noticed quite a bit of extra low end punch from the old 6.2. It also didn't take as much throttle to Get up to speed, I'll be driving a new 6.2 this week.
