OK, scratch that. Owner of dealership sold truck on Friday night to a friend, unbeknownst to the sales manager who I was dealing with. It would have been nice if the owner would have checked in to see if sales manager was working on a sale. I had even given them my credit card number to hold the truck for me until I got there the next morning. Oh well, one will turn up one of these days.

Ive had two trucks with a 53 block and never had a problem with either one of them. The first one was a 1998 24 valve and the other is a 2000 with 175000 miles and still counting.

It's possible to get a 53 block on an 02'?....I had always thought they were much earlier than that....Can you tell by the VIN if it has one?

I don't see where anybody in this thread said they had an '02 with a 53 block.

I was just wondering because you had asked if it was easy or hard to find a 01 or 02 without a 53 block. I didn't know if they put 53 blocks in 02's....I have an 02 & I don't even know what block it is because I've never checked...

I didn't know if they did either, hence the reason I asked.
