    what kind of issues did you have? Did you do the swap or someone else? Did you keep the VVT? I am planning to do a LY6 swap on my truck pretty soon too. Any info and tips would be great. Thanks

    i did the swap myself,it was easy swap.minor issue well wasnt big of a deal was i had to delete the vvt cam ,retain factory 4.8 cam/sprocket and use the 4.8 timing cover...when i pulled the 6.0 cam out it brought out a cam bearing...so i got em all replaced.its real easy bro.i should be getting my custom grind cam in soon cant wait
