    a stall converter will wake it up, also. I'd run a 2600 stall in a stock LQ4.

    Yea stall should be good, maybe higher since I have the 80e. Now what I'm trying to figure out is if its worth it keeping this 6.0

    that depends on what you truely want out of yoru truck. if you want big power the block is worht keeping and making a 408 out of it. if you want something to drive keep it in the truck and not worry. if you want the fastest 6.0 around then pull that sucker out and rebuild it with good parts. the answer all lies in what you truely want. Dont try to keep up with the Jonesys cause youll go broke

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    Alright, well I was planning on tuning it tomorrow. But now I'm debating on whether going Flaco or Nelson. Who doesn't want to make lots of power! L0l

    I think with a tune, you will see a major difference. But I agree on swapping out for 5.3 heads. Preferably the ones with the 799 casting number on them.
    Flow great, and still bump up compression.

    Cool, when I get a chance I'll scan it again. I forgot the codes.
