This does not apply to this model year of truck, as the LS engines have dry intake manifolds.
Very true. IMO, nothing better than new Dex for a 99+ GM v8. I tried G05 in my 03 5.3 Silverado for several months when I switched over to it on our 3.4 grand ams. It didn't hurt anything, ran fine, but didn't have the nearly same amount of heat rolling off of the radiator as Dex does when you park it- by my observation. So Dex went back in. Also, I believe that GM coats some coolant passages with Dex type chemicals to help heat transfer.
I JUST picked up an 08 Sierra with original coolant in it, time for a drain n fill already, 5yrs is getting close! And a new battery since I'm an ounce of prevention guy...
