Engine swap, SORT OF?
#1
I have a 2001 silverado with a 6.0.
I am looking to get a little more out of it when I replace it. (somewhat soon, just turned 200K)
I want to replace it with a 6.0 from a newer year and or model to hopefully get more HP!
Will any of the newer years/models plug right in with little or no mods needed to the computer, harness, or other components?
What is the best and/or easiest combo?
THANX

do search on this mostly its the intakes return style fuel vs returnless you should be able just to swap over youre intake system now...most sensors plug right up I think some years had a difffernt crank senor but you could use the one of the old 6.0...as far as power goes you could hop up any 6.0 to do what you want , 317 heads are good, 706 if ou want higher compression ...you might just want to rebuild youre current set up ....cam it . larger ingectors, tune ...LTs , stall if needed could be small and go

the crank sensor changed to 58x at some point, however, i dont think there was many improvements on the 6.0 besides the lq9 and the new style intake. If you do use a 58x crank trigger engine, Im pretty sure Lingerfelter sells a conversion module to make it a 24x signal.
