Oddly enough, some 6.0L will pop up here or LS1Tech fairly cheap, most of the time I have found great deals on eBay. Usually LQ4s.

 

i found my 6.0 for 1000 dollars at a local wrecking yard and the swap ouy is super easy pull in the shop to pull out was 8.5 hrs with me doin 95 percent by myself. DO THE 6.0 MAN!

 

hmmm...so its like this use the grand i have for some 12w3 JLs or a 6.0l...personally my gibson dual sounds alot better then 12s and thats with a 4.8 LOL!

 

What are your goals after the swap?? if you are going to stay N/A i would recomend a 5.3 because you will gain some low end torq and if you add a mild cam and a stall your truck will be alot of fun . On the other hand... if you want to go FI then the 6.0 will be the way to go since the Lq4' have low compression, I personally bought a 6.0 and rebuilt it to top it off with a radix after I get an FLT level 5 .

 

umm sorry man but BS!

the 6.0 alwys has and always will have more TQ than the 5.3l

the 6.0 is superior to the 5.3 and 4.8 in every way and situation

get a 05-up LQ4 whether you got NA or FI. put some ported small combustion chamber heads on a lq4 with nice cam and you have a high-compression, pump gas NA motor, or put some ported large combustion chamber heads w/nice cam and your choice of Fi and you have a monster

 

yeah....... my 6.0 hardly has any tq

 

I'm not saying that the 5.3 has more tq than a 6.0 since he's thinking about buying two sub's instead of the 6.0 becasue of the cost I was giving him a cheaper alternative.

 

ohh alright gotcha but i still think that if hes goin through the trouble of a motor swap go all the way

 

i agree its the same work either way might as well dominate for your troubles

 

ya i see ur point now i just gotta find a 6.0...lol
