OK. Im fixin to get my 6.0 block finaaly bought and this is what i plan to do to it...bare with me on the mod list...

Bored .040 over
a callies 4.000" crankshaft
Diamond pistons
eagle connecting rods
Patriot Performance Stage II heads
And probaly a 231/237 cam or somewhere around there.
And i will be transfering all the boltons from my 5.3 onto the 6.0
If im not mistaken, boring it .040 over and the 4.000" crankshaft will make it a 408ci motor? just give me an estimate of what kinda power you think i'd make..thanks..oh yeah. im also gonna use ls1 edit to tune the bad boy...
OKIE, Keep us posted on your progress!

you can adjust the compression ratio by the milling of the heads as well. and i know terry at patriot will work with you on that. he can tell ya what pistons to get with chamber size/bore etc.
