Talk it through →FITMENT BEFORE COMMITMENT
Same van.
Three possible engines.
A used 2017 Chevy Express 2500 engine has to match the engine your van was built with: the 4.8L or 6.0L Vortec V8, or the 2.8L Duramax diesel. Confirm the VIN, RPO code and what is included before you order.
The GMC Savana uses the same engine families. A Savana engine can fit an Express when the codes match, so match the code rather than the badge.
