    I've been down a while because I blew up my engine, well a piston to be exact. It appears #7 injector was leaning out on the top end, during boost. There's really know way to easily monitor this, without it being a pita. Wideband showed good, but one sensor in the pipe is reading all injectors.
    That's history now, time to move on.

    Today I was able to head up to Hi-Way Auto , www.hi-wayauto.com , and pick up my 2003 6.0L. It's pretty much complete and the guys up there are very helpful and I don't anyone can beat their price. Browsing around the yard; I felt like I was in a candy store, lol. Engines everywhere!!!

    I'll get this in soon, then head out to the track and see what she'll do. I'll be running about 6lbs for now. After the intercooler is in, I'll take it up some more, along with some larger injectors.

    Very nice, you've got better heads on that 6.0 and it's lower compression (9.4:1 I think vs 10:1) over the LS1. Seems No 7 takes a dump on the motors that go for some reason.

    Cool. That will definitely give more power but you'll lose a bit of performance since you're going to be dragging around a few more pounds. That turbo will definitely offset the added weight and then some. I might go that route too when I finally wear my LS1 engine out. Glad to see you getting back in the game, Allen.

    A quick question for Allen.....Is the rear crankshaft flange the same on the 6.0L the same as our's on the LS1 5.7s? I thought I heard they are a different length.

    I think you're thinking of the '99-00 6.0... those had longer cranks only for the 4L80E.
