I read somewhere on this board or LS1tech that the only way to distinguish between a 4.8 and 5.3 (upon inspecting at a yard/craigslist) would be to pull a spark plug and scope the engine...or something like that. It's been 6 months since I looked at that so I have ingested and forgotten a lot since then.
