I just wanted to ask this question, because I have no idea what the answer is. I wanted to know what type of diesel engine is in the Colorado, and is it worthwhile to try and put in the AV?
 
2.8 duramax. It makes 181hp and like 369 Ib-ft torque.
The 5.3 in 02 makes more hp and slightly lower torque.
