The all-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 arrive first as
a crew cab, followed soon by a regular cab and a double cab, which replaces the
extended cab of previous years. Early buyers can choose from either a 4.3L V6
engine or a 5.3L V8 engine. A new 6.2L V8 engine will follow later in the year.
For the first time, 1500 crew cabs will be available with a longer 6’6” cargo box,
in addition to the previous 5’8” cargo box, enabling customers to carry more cargo
while still being able to park in many garages.
New EcoTec3 Engines
Three all-new EcoTec3 engines will be offered. The EcoTec3 engines feature three
state-of-the-art technologies — direct injection, V4 Active Fuel Management (cylinder
deactivation) and continuously variable valve timing — to make the most of power,
torque and efficiency across a broad range of operating conditions.

Full-Size Truck Brake Pipe Kit
ACDelco recently released new
hydraulic brake pipe kits for 1999-2007
Chevrolet Silverados and GMC Sierras
and 1999-2006 Cadillac Escalade,
Chevrolet Tahoe, Chevrolet Suburban,
Chevrolet Avalanche and GMC Yukon
models. These kits can be used any time
the replacement of the entire brake pipe
assembly is required.
All kits are pre-formed and pre-flared
to aid installation. The brake pipe kits
have a nylon coating that provides better
corrosion protection; and they are a low-
er-cost alternative to pipe replacement.
The kits are not intended for the repair
of a single damaged brake pipe. They
are intended for the replacement of
the entire brake pipe assembly due to
corrosion or wear.
Service bulletin 13D-079 GMT800
details the procedures for installing
these kits. It includes a part number
listing for each application.
