The main issue with the LB7 engines is the injectors going bad. There is an extended warrrenty that is 200k miles or some amount of years. Can't remember the number, but I don't think an '01 will qualify. You can run a VIN check and see if they have been changed under warrenty. One thing that makes the injectors tough to change on an LB7 is that they are tought to get to. Another think to check is the "pump rub" issue. Do a search.
How many miles are on it? How is the overall condition? Was it a company truck or a farm truck? Any evidence of a tuner ever installed?
Good Luck.

Pump rub is in the t-case the one gear rubs the side of the case and puts a small hole in the case then drains the oil out
