so why not 6.0 again?
I don't want to do an engine swap right now, plus I'm just looking for some more power for DD.


This is what I just ordered
210/216 .556 .561 110+4
LS6 springs
OBX LT headers

I have the comp 212/218 low lift, ls6 springs and a trailblazer converter in my truck 4.8. It has 3.73's and I think it still needs a looser converter. I think a smaller LCA would help with more torque though. I'd be interested in how your setup turns out.

Yea it's not going to be fast by any means. I really have no complaints driving stop light to stop light, it just has NO power passing on the highway and can't hold cruise without going into third.. I think a good tune and the LT headers will help alot with the lowend cruising.

Cool man, I'll probably take you up on that for the cam swap.

i'm sure we could gangbang that camswap at the GTG. But that probably lead to F-ups.
