6.0 swapped for LS2
Not quite what you may think. I swapped engines, with the sheetmetal attached.
Recently bought an 05 gmc SD truck. Too nice for work, and the existing 04 Dmax out towed it and better mpg. I already had an 01 GMC C3 (same truck but with ec rather than 4 full doors, and now sporting a turbo, although still working out some issues, including the proverbial 2-3 4l65e slip shift).
I took it in the shorts, but traded the SD for an 05 SSR with the LS2 and a 6 speed.
I'm checking the availability of exhaust, cia and a custom dyno tune. That should do till the warranty is up, along with some better braking. I'm hoping for 425hp or so, till we opt for a radix? Mid 13's with the warranty still intact sounds pretty good, and hoping for 25 mpg!
I think I'm single handedly making state farm rich!
