Description
The VEGE DCT8 is a remanufactured 5.3L/325 cu. in. long-block crate engine, sold individually. It is assembled and includes cylinder heads, an oil pump, and a gasket. The intake manifold and many installation components are not included, so confirm what your build requires before ordering.
VEGE describes these remanufactured long blocks as foundations for budget-minded builds and as drop-in replacements for a range of stock vehicles, with retrofit use possible in additional applications. Order the engine recommended for your vehicle; specific fitment information is not provided here.
VEGE says its engines are reverse-engineered to address original defects, then reconditioned by technicians to factory specifications. Wearable parts are replaced or machined to OE standards, and the engines are tested and calibrated.
