i went and bought the 6.0 block, crank, rods & pistons with cam. brought it home last night and tossed the cam out. (anybody looking for a stock 6.0 cam?) after getting that stall made i think ill be good to go. any other little details i should encounter. now that i have the block im getting anxious.
Only if you have the longer crank will you need the 80e flex plate...
If the crank flange is flush with the back of the motor you will need the dished flywheel.
