Nope no recalls. I assume you ask because the intake manifold gasket has failed once or more on your truck. Everyone I know with a Tahoe 99 or earlier has had to get the gasket replaced due to coolant leaking down the engine. I've had mine done twice. According to my calculations at this point, the gasket fails around every 50,000 miles. I've got 103,000 now and just got it done the second time. First time was around 50-60,000 miles. Chevy says it's because of the two different metals the intake manifold and heads are made of. During heating up and cooling down, the metals move differently and over time allow the gasket to fail. You could try retorquing the bolts every so often but I don't know what the setting is. Gasket companies don't make a better gasket than the plastic one that's in there. GM may have improved since on this issue but as far as the 5.7L Vortec V-8, $800+ every 50,000 miles or so at the dealer. Or do it yourself for cheap.
