I don't show a 5.7L engine available for the 2006 Sierra in any trim. I do see a 4.3 V6, a 4.8 V8, and a 5.3 V8, and they use the same alternator from 2005 to 2007, from what I can tell. I would definitely call a dealership to confirm fit before buying or ordering though, as sometimes these catalogs can be inaccurate.

I'd be glad to recheck if you can get me the VIN number to your truck. Thanks.
