Two questions:

1) Does anyone know the engine code of the 6.0 in the 2015s?

2) Can anyone recommend a good towing cam for these engines? Preferably one from Comp Cams?

3) Bonus Question: Does anyone know of a good shop that can perform a cam swap and tune in Canada, or a north central state?

Thanks guys.

 

Should be the L96. Are you going to get headers?

Something in the ball park of a 212/220 114+3 with headers, and a 210/222 114+1 with the stock manifolds. The overlap bias becomes really important when you have stock manifolds.

 

I will be getting ARH headers yes.. I was just trying to quickly find the engine code on google and found a review of the silverado 2500hd, and it claimed the engine code was LC8. Sounds like a weird code

 

Spoke to Comp Cams tech, they recommend this cam for the LC8 (assuming thats the engine thats in this unit!)

I have no idea how to read numbers though. I'm thrown off by the massive RPM range. I have a theory in life, anything that does everything is not as good as something that does one thing only. (i.e.: an adjustable wrench doesn't work as well as a combination wrench, and a grill for your kitchen that has 18 attachments doesn't work as well as a bbq)

What do you guys think of this for a towing cam? Truck seems to cruise around 2000 rpm when towing, and doesn't seem to go above 4500 RPM unless your an animal on the throttle. Also I will be installing long tubes on it, my pipe dream is ARH, but I may resort to hooker headers or something of the like. Long tubes for sure though.

 

That cam would work. Its in the ball park of what I just recommended. That cam is a VVT cam which could help with bottom end power too.

What I had in mind was not.

 

Yep. It's not safe to go too aggressive on vvt cammed engines. One exception I know is that there's a 2013 camaro ss l99/6l80 that's running an ehi lobed vvt cam that traps 7.0 in the 8th mile all motor lol

 

And the new engines are direct injected, heads are different etc

 

Nope. The 6.0 is a carryover for the '15 year model so mod on.

 

really, i would prefer the new engine

 

Basically you get a motor that was sitting in a warehouse since like 2011 in your new 2015 truck haha.
