Weird question but I have my reasons. A co-worker just bought a used, 2003 Silverado and it has a 4.8 sticker under the hood. Isn't this the L6 (inline 6 cyl) engine?? Well, his truck is definitely a V-8. Possibly a 5.3?? Mistaken sticker and all that crap?????
Smallest V-8 in a 2003 Silverado??????????

Chevy makes 4.8 liter V8, it's correct.

Thanks..I didn't know they made one that small. What is the cubic inch displacement of this 4.8????

Wouldn't that be something like a 289/290 CID?
Just a guess on my part! Jim Smith
the 4.8 came out in the new body style siverados in 99
283 CID
No, it equates to 292 CID to be exact!

GM powertrain lists it as :
4807 cc (293 ci)-Bret
