Have you checked the EGR valve? The P0449 EVAP code is normally or the purge solenoid on the intake. Unplug the line that feeds the EVAP system from the purge valve and connect a vacuum gage. It should flutter while it is activated. If not, that could be the culprit.

My 2003 chevy silverado 1500 4wd (5.3 Vortec) has a trouble code (po449 & 455) I know what that problem is but, I do not know where the locations of this problem would be. PO449 is a Evaporative...

The first thing I would check is the fuel cap. Your vehicle uses a closed vent system to control the fuel vapors in the tank and then vent the vapors to the engine intake system to burn. so you have a leak either your purge/ vent solenoid is stuck or open all the time not allowing the on board diagnostics to run the test or you may a bad fuel cap, and it is venting to the atmosphere allowing the gross leak. The purge/ vent valve is under the vehicle next to the charcoal canister.
