only reason why i asked about n/a 6.0's is because i dont wanna always depend on nitrous..... and turbos/chargers are out of my budget lol.

Its great, only bad spot is between 45 an 55 it jumps up around 2200-2300 to pull any hills, will cruise at 1400 at 40-45 ,but if the converter is locked up its running at 1700 - 1800 at 65. I get 15-16 mpgs with alot of hills an traffic. I have thought about getting to around 3200 but when u lay ur foot in it that thought dissapears lol. Never gets out of my power band an instantly hits the power when u get in it. I had a 4600 on it an it was flat out retarded how quick it was for just being stalled, but 13 mpgs changed mt mind. I'm happy with it now tho. Hope this spill helped.

What do you wanna know? Last year with my set up in sig but with the patriot cam it went 13.08 in a 4200 ft DA, this year I have a Custom Cam that made the patriot feel like it was a stocker. Probably run mid 12's with a 1.7ish 60 ft. With spray it will go 11's...

Mods and times in my sig. Basically just a stock 6.0 with a mild cam, 3000 rpm stall, and a good tune. Still running cats, stock pullies, stock clutch fan, open rear with 3.73s, 32" tall A/T tires... And 4wd.

I'm actually just trying to see if i'm headed in the right direction. My goal is to produce 400 hp+ if possible. so far on the 6.0 i have a 230-236 cam i bought from spike. Have patriot springs, ls2 timing set, ls7 lifters, ls6 ported oil pump, stock 243's which may get ported depending on funds, fast intake with 102 tb, new kooks headers.

I have yet to decide on what size fuel injectors, what route i want to run my exhaust, if 243's are the heads i want to run, and what stall convertor?


Quick Reply: those who run n/a 6.0's
