My truck has a 4.8 in it right now. Cant find any 6.0s around in good shape. have the opportunity to scoop up a ls1 pretty cheap. Good idea or keep the 4.8 and put 1000 bucks into it?
basically i have 1000 bucks to spend and need opinions on what direction to go in. in the long run im shooting for 350 to 400 at the wheels no more.
I want that on motor not using any kind of boost.
LS1........ 4.8 wont see 400 without Spray or boost
4.8 is alittle bitch and only good with boost. if you find a ls1 go for it
sweet deal thanks guys. Kinda liking the ls1 just because its different also.
Another vote for LS1. I'm currently building one for my S10. I can't wait to get it done.
Another LS1 vote here. unless you come across a 6.0 at the right price!
LS2...best of both worlds.
LS1! I bought an ls1 to replace my 4.8 also, turns out its an ls6 from an 04 z06. It should be out of the machine shop next week. I bought it because it was an awesome deal and ls1s are just as capable as 6.0s.
