    No it's impossible. It'll be easier to just sell it and find something with a 6.0.

    It's called sarcasm. Look around the site, use the magical search function.

    I'm not sure why he is being a dick Any year will work. All the accesories will work. The differences will be whether the tb is drive by wire or cable, and whether the 6.0 you get has return style or returnless style fuel rails. And you'll need a 6.0 flex plate.

    So if those things are different just take your intake, rails, and tb off the 4.8, get new intake gaskets and put it on the 6.0.

    He's not being a dick, this question is just asked and answered every day.
    And no, every year won't work. The long shaft 99-00 LQ4 won't work with a 4L60e.
    OP, all you need is a 01-06 longblock. All your accessories and intake, injectors, TB etc. will fit. PCM is the same, just get a tune.
    Seriously though, hit up the search button and most if not all of your questions will be answered.
