I was told it will be in the eight inch range and will be cast iron (don't tell Bebe
). I think they said 8.5, but cannot verify that with the one we have been playing with since it is not a total 08; just an 07 with the 5.3L.
As I said there was not much difference, in my opinion between a 3.7L and the 3.5L, there is quite a difference between the 3.7L and the 5.3L. You can actually beat those dang H2s; that is, until you come across an 08 with the 6.2L.
The trans stays the same, or at least the one I have been playing with is the same.
Personally, I may have to rethink the V8 thing since I'm hearing that the color I want will only be offered on the Alpha or the Bling X version.
Still no info on fuel mileage tests or pricing, but as I said earlier, rumor has it the price will be over 2K. Which makes sense, a more expensive engine and front axle.
