I have converted my 04 to electric fans, so that wasn't it.

I didn't pay any attention when I looked under the hood.

Alum blocks tend to have more valvetrain noise due to less mass/density.

I love my '01 LQ4. That summabitch is as quiet as a church mouse, and it has 137K+ on it. :D

I went and test drove a 06 silverado 1500 with 5.3 and it sounds different at idle versus my 2004 Silverado 1500 5.3. Did they change anything on newer motors?

The 04 was probably running AMSOIL, makes it run quieter. :dunno: :jester:
