Carbed 6.0 combo ??
I have a 01 LQ4 6.0 with 81,000 miles i just picked up...What all would you guys check, replace? I'm going with a edelbrock victor jr intake, 750 dp holley, msd controller, 1" 3/4 headers, 4000 stahl, 4.10's and either a MS3 or MS4? Which cam would you run of the two? I'm going with the cam kit texas speed has, springs, pushrods, etc...New timing chain I know for sure, but what else? Oil pump? Would you have the heads milled for increased compression? I have a nx express plate kit for this motor as well...Motor is going in a 78 malibu. Any suggestions welcome, thank you....

Damn, I am super envious over your future project. My first car was an '80 Malibu. Had built a 355 for it but lost interest at that young of an age. I dont know if you have to run a different size cam because you are going carbed? That motor in that car could run a pretty healthy sized cam with the right converter and gears. Might have to go custom ground.
