I might have missed it but is the LQ9 stock or modded? I'm sure it's just in the tune.
I know my LQ9 felt way underpowered compared to the 5.3 when I first put it in but a good tune made all the difference in the world.
It has a 93 Wheatley tune on it so I don't know. I may go get it dyno'd.

Also, I didn't realize the 6.0 had bigger injectors. I still have the 6.0 injectors with me though so I could put them in. I plan on adding a cam soon. Will the 24.7lb/hr injectors not be enough?

Just did a quick search, looks like I was wrong.
https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...ight=injectors

01+ 4.8/5.3/6.0 used 24.7lb injectors. The 8.1 used 31lb.

You should be fine if you don't have any bolt ons or mods.

I was planning on adding a 210/218 cam. Will I need bigger injectors?
