I found a ly6 with 50k on it for 1300 out of a 08 van is this a good price? What power does this motor put out stock and is it a good platform for 400+ hp at the crank with a few bolt ons? Anyone know what heads come on it im wondering if ill need a l92 intake?

 

That is a good price stock I heard ones in VANs are Detuned to 310hp to the crank I'm sure a pair of headers and T-body and a nice tune Id say mid 300s but if u cam it then I can see 400+ to the crank witha good setup hope more guys with ly6s will help u more

 

ok i did more research i need a l92 intake anything else ill need to change or upgrade to put it in my 09 that came with the lc9 5.3.

 

That is a good deal, but i duno if i would swap a 6.0 for a 5.3.

 

I'm swapping out the 5.3 it burns oil like crazy. Not gonna even try to fix it not worth it.

 

Buy it, delete vvt and cam it & get an ls7 T/B for faster t/b response. It will drop right in, I would get a 40k cooler if you dont have it already.

 

That 5.3 with a good setup will make real good power also alot are push 400 plus crank hp

 

What's a good mild cam I want it to idle smooth. Is it possible to get the vvt working in my truck that didnt come with it.

 

Put 5.3 in trash can no replacement for displacement. Great stock for stock swap and if you have cash change cams.

 

To be clear is it possible to keep the stock vvt cam in the ly6? Is there another connector on the ly6 timming cover that my wire harness dosen't have for the cam advance?
