What truck/suv should I look to find a 6.0 out of ?
which has the best intake heads etc ?
Ill install a new cam only.
Will be replacing my 5.3 in a crewcab 1500, I purchased a 5th wheel camper and it pulls ok but I want a little more
thought of gearing down but I like when Im not pulling the tall gear.

Look for an LQ9. Came in the SS and most of the gas HD trucks I believe.
T-RAV99 GMC | 5.3 | Skinny White Guy Tuned
Ok, I hear about the Escalade and Denalis also, just didnt know If this had already been discussed , I m sure it has many times, If theres a link or another thread Id love to read it.
Or are all 6.0's basically the same ?

what year is your truck...a Ly6,L76 are badass as well with the L92 heads
Nope LQ4 and LQ9 for the NBS and if you have a NNBS then a Ly6 or L76 are pretty dope too.Originally Posted by 1fastchevy
Heads are the biggest improvement on the NNBS trucks and the LQ9 has higher compression and flattop pistons vs the LQ4.

Any 6.0 you can get will be fine.. Your not going to notice much over less then a point of compression... They have the same heads, intake, unless your looking at the 07 up 6.0's Also depending what year truck it is going into, you want a 07 classic engine as they have the correct reluctor wheels, sensor location to make it plug and play for 07c trucks back to 99..
