will LS7 heads bolt on a 6.0 block & reuse LQ9 accessories?
Gone, but not forgotten!
yes, they should bolt on, however you will need an ls7 intake manifold and fuel rails etc. really way overkill
Thank you.Originally Posted by wondertruck

Also you'll destroy any low speed power you have due to the volume of the runner and the intake valve diameter.

Let's face it, the red hair... makes 'em wet.
not really any loss that you will notice, most tests show 10-15rwtq losses down low over setups formerly with LS1/LS6 heads. and all that could be changed with a different manifold with properly sized plenum and/or runners.
With his forced induction it may not be any issue at all.
Get your shopping buggy ready for heads, 8 new rockers, not sure if you need different pushrods but don't know for sure, L76 or L92 intake complete with fuel rails, injectors and throttle body. Surely you can transfer your current injectors to the new fuel rail.
Thanks for the info guys. That is way more involved than I want. I will get my heads reworked, or get some Patriots or something.

SC the chamber are to small. They are like 35cc. Try the L92 heads,I think hey are like normal 6.0L heads on the cc size.
