IVe got boats laod of 5.3 performance stuff, jsut did a cam swap, built 60e, and Im REGRET it all! I houlda just bought a 6.o and popped it in...oblivous to the fact before!! DAMMIT

Well i guess i'll jsut ahve to blow the hell outta this one....lol

 

5.3's are no joke with the right parts ask slopro

 

how much more potential is there with the 6.0 as opposed to a 4.8 or a 5.3?

 

When I swapped the 5.3 for a 6L I noticed a considerable SOTP difference down low.

 

well lets say you do a cam and all supporting mods (bolt ons, tune) to the 4.8 and to the 6.0 side by side, how much more is the 6.0 going to be putting out?

 

i went 4.8 to cammed 6.0.its very easy just get 02 or newer 6.0 so the crank will work and you get the aluminum heads for the motor.i bought mine complete for 1000 at a local salvage yard.changed brake plug on back of intake and oil blockoff platefrom4.8 because 6.0 had oil cooler but it bolts right on.changed the motor in 8.5 hours bye myself but i had a rack to lift the truck so that helped.everything plug right in.DO IT!

 

1000, now taht's a deal! How many miles?

 

wouldnt you need a long block?

 

so kingots, how much more power did you gain?

 

Hey, just saw this post! Gah, go to the track flooding out in second and third, get beat by 1 5.3L truck, and never hear the end of it!!!!! THIS WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN!!!
