not everything GM has put money into has been successful. the heads just dont have good velocity for the size of runners. that isnt new technology thats just basic theory

There were only scant troubles with the 6L trans in a longitudinal configuration right at the onset of the early 07 GMT900. This trans is a monster and is NOT failure prone. The trouble is it is not directly swapable into a half ton that came with the old school 4L as the wiring is completely different, the TCM is internal, and the PCM's are not interchangeable.

Doing an ls3 would be a lot easier and swap over with little issues.

Just do an LT1 swap.

BTW he'd be better off with the orginal LT-1 carbureted swap with solid lifters than an LT1.
