07 LQ9 w/5 miles on it-$1,900

Thank You...That is what it was out of. I believe they made an alum block 5.3L for the vmax also, not sure about the heads the used on it.

I don't care what you say, but there has never been--and never will be an Aluminum 6.0L with am RPO of "LQ9."

The all aluminum 5.3L you speak of is the L33. It was used in the 03 SSR and ex cab 4WD trucks. It is considered the 5.3L HO. There was also another type of aluminum 5.3L, called the LM4. Its output was the same as the LM7, and it was found in the extended length versions of the Envoy and Trailblazer.

Do you see a pattern? Even though the LM4 is dimensionally the same, has the same output, and has the same parts as the LM7, GM had to change the RPO on the motor solely because of the aluminum block.

So, with that said, there is no RPO for an aluminum block LQ9. The motor you guys are talking about is the L76--like I said before. This motor is the Gen IV version of the Gen III LQ9.

And I win...as usual. Jurt, Ricky...you both have just been PWNED!!!!!!

I say Tyler is right on this but wrong for wearing a dress. The only thing that matters is that someone on this forum buys this engine. If I were closer I'da snatched it up already and it would be on ebay.

How much Money you want to bet? He looked the numbers up cause I didn't believe him either and it was an aluminum block, I do know what L92 heads are, and I've seen a L92 truck intake also. Maybe GM made a mut.

He will bring it lol, chevy calls it either lq9 or 6.0 max. So in theory yes the older lq9 motors were cast iron but thew new "lq9" or 6.0 max is all alum, block heads, pistons. it comes in the vmax truck for chevy an gmc.
