* Bore and stroke: A 5.3L V8's dimensions (bore x stroke) will determine its displacement (5.3L). Different manufacturers and even different engine versions within the same manufacturer may use different bore and stroke combinations to achieve the same displacement. You would need to specify the *exact* engine make and model to find these precise dimensions.
* Deck height: This is the distance between the cylinder heads' mounting surfaces. This will also vary depending on the engine's specific design.
* External dimensions: The overall physical dimensions of the engine block vary widely between manufacturers and engine families.
To find the specific dimensions you're interested in, you'll need to consult the engine's specifications from the manufacturer or a reputable automotive database. Searching for "[Engine Make and Model] engine specifications" will likely yield the information you need.
