Default Silverado 5.3 EcoTech3 V8 with auto transmission swap

I just came across this on the Facebook - Washington Land Rovers Owners site:

Great looking Disco. Looks like a very clean install by a shop out of Spokane, WA.

Hey, now that is interesting. If that's a 2015 motor then that's not an LS; it's an EcoTec which is a completely different architecture. Very interesting. I haven't seen any EcoTec swaps yet in anything. The parts they share with an LS based engine will literally fit in a sandwich bag.

I wonder what the MPG numbers are? Should be higher than the LS swapped Disco. Maybe 20-21?

Very interesting indeed.

Thanks for the heads up. I tried to revise the title to "Silverado 5.3 EcoTech3 V8 with auto transmission swap", but there is not a way which I could find to do it.
