Is the 6.0 the best?

[Gopedxr]

I started another thread like this on fullsizechevy. Everyone said its a great motor. Others said there is other really good motors to. After I met all the guys from performance truck.net i saw that they are all running with the 6.0.

I am talking these guys are making some serious power. Any input?

LS3 will beat the pants off a 6L engine without any modifications.

6.0 Been Around And Make Good Power,but Go Ls3 Ftw!!

haha nice one guys. Well i am assuming the ls3 would cost me like ten grand to get alone?

[CHEVROLADE]

no ls3 will run you,well so far cheapest one i found was 4,500,thats what ill be swapping in my 08' soon.

New they're under $6500. Check out SDPARTS.com and CrateEngineDepot.com for GM prices on complete engine assemblies.

Thats to much you guys. I want to get moving fast. I had a friend get a 6.0 for 800 bucks out of a burned denali.

Hes pushing over 800 pound feet of tq with the turbo : ) Thats why i want to get a 6.0 out of a truck and swap it in and do some simple mods. I think i will be moving plenty fast by then.

yea u can get a 6.0 alot less than a 6.2,range from $1200-$2200

you can find a 6.0 for under 1k. add heads and cam and your way above the power of the Ls3 for alot less money. for the money you spend on the 377 you could have a built 6.0 turned 377 for the same price and have better power

or if your stuck on using the Ls3 heads and intake you can toss those on a 6.0 and still be cheaper and have same motor essentially

Thanks for the last reply. Man I cant wait to get a 6.0! So that motor will haul ass just with some work like cams and long tubes? And black bear or a nelson tune?
