Default Ls1 and 6.0 parts.

I dont know much about the differences in the ls1 in camaros and the 6.0 motors. Can the internals for an ls1 stroker kit work with the 6.0, what about intakes, also has anyone put a 6.0 in an f-body.

Yes, the internals will swap out. It's a matter of getting the right bore and stroke sizes that you want. Intakes will swap, but with fuel and belt modifications. Yes, a few people have put a 6.0 block in an F-body. MTI sells a 409 iron block 6.0 stroker. Matter of fact, several sponsors do.

Yes. There may be a very minor differances, like the mounting hole for the alternator, but you should be fine. I know all the bolts but one on the truck alt bracket will bolt up to the LS1 block. So I believe it would be the same the other way around.

one more, what about the computer, would it be ok if it was going to use ls1 edit, or would i need the 6.0 computer? and also how strong are the internals on the 6.0. The plan is for a turbo, and the 6.0 is much cheaper, as well as a better choice for a turbo block, i know with the ls1 you can run hi boost on stock crank and aftermarket rods and pistons. Is the 6.0 crank as strong?
