The video is below. I can provide details for the da calculator if needed. The SUV I ran was a WRX Forrester XT.

Sure enough guys, no replacement for displacement. Even the FI/NOS guys can agree with that statement.

 

Glad your happy with your swap man!

I could tell a difference in bottom end when i swapped from my 5.3 to my 6.0. The sound is more throaty too, 6.0's sound good!

 

Nahhh...not necessarily.

Congrats on your newfound times and power!

 

Isnt forced induction a "displacement extension"?? lol

Anywho awesome mod.. Gotta love the 6.0

 

I love displacement but FI is a clear replacement. No need to argue but it is a fact. There is a reason no body uses big blocks anymore.

 

Why are your brake lights on at half track?

P.S. Stop before the beams. hahaha I did that my first time to the track but never again.

 

what was your da that night?

 

I knew someone would bring this up... If you suck the air in 6 liters at a time or force 6 liters of air into a 4.8 you still have more displacement right? More air means more displacement right?

I think nobody builds big blocks anymore because there is not that big of a market to support the big blocks. Big blocks are few and far between in the automotive manufacturing industry. Trucks with the big blocks were a middle ground between the 6.0 and the diesel. The torque produced was not fuel efficient at all. With that much torque, why not just spend the extra 4 grand and buy the diesel and get better gas mileage and torque.

Half way through track is the end of the 1/4. Then another 1/4 mile for braking. We have a short track. Also LED tail lights are bright no matter what.

DA was 2503

 

wow, I figured you wouldof been a little faster with the converter and cam. I went 14.78 with a da of 3500 with the boltons in my sig. What does your truck weigh in at?

 

Nice runs...The reason imo that big blocks are obsolete is 1) Diesels and 2) With the redesign of the small block , we now have a raised cam etc. and more room to get the same cid out of a small block while retaining decent milage and a weight savings..Not to mention it saves GM a lot of money focusing on one line of v8's
