03 6.0 swap question
I'm planning on putting a HO 6.0 LQ9 into my 03 silverado 5.3L. I'm sure that it will work fine with the stock programming, but will I be optimizing the power of the 6.0? My local dealer tells me that they cannot program my truck for the 6.0 swap. Is this true? Who can do this for me? Also is the intake the same on the 5.3 as 6.0? Which should I use? I assume that I use the 6.0.
