I am going to throw this one out there. Look up the LV3 4.3 V6 in the new Silverado's.

My 2018 crew cab has that engine, and it scoots along great. I have the 3.23 factory gears, and plan is to go to 3.73 or 3.91 in fall. I have towed almost 7000 pounds with it, and it did better then tuned 4.8. My truck like your Burb is not a small women.

It is un-loved so you can get the whole thing cheap, but you need to getbthen6 speed with it. That is 1/2 the magic of this combo.
