The 4.8L GM Vortec engine, also known as the Vortec 4800, is part of General Motors’ family of V8 engines. This engine has been used in a wide variety of applications, primarily in full-size trucks and SUVs, for its balance of power and efficiency. Here’s a list of notable applications:
Use conventional or break-in oil (non-synthetic) for the first 600 miles of operation. Do not drive for long periods at any single speed, always vary your speed. Do not tow a trailer or put other heavy loads on the vehicle. Check the engine oil and coolant levels daily.
At 600 Miles change the engine oil and filter using conventional (non-synthetic) oil. Check fuel and ignition settings; adjust valves (where applicable).
