Default 6.0 swap

How much would i expect to pay for the engine? Are most of you getting them from junkyards? Nothing extra to buy, everything from the 5.3 goes on the 6.0 no problem?

Just debating some future plans

you'll be looking for a 2001+ 6.0L (will have aluminum heads) and you should expect to pay anywhere from $1,000 and up depending on where it's located and it's condition.

it's a direct bolt in swap, however don't be surprised when your transmission hates you shortly afterwards (unless it happens to be a freak)

I paid $700 for my 32K mile LQ4. I got a break since I "knew somebody" who "knew somebody" though
