ok so i found a 2002 6.0 complete with 14,000 miles for 500 bucks..guy had it pulled for a small ticking sound..so what should i do with this motor?? im going to be stickin my tr 224 cam in it..what would the 241 heads do to the compression ratio on this?? whats the best way to pull the motor on this?? what tranny issues would i have?

 

You aren't going to have any tranny issues because you won't have one for more than a week if you stick to the 4L60E...get a 4L80E and you should be good.

 

241 heads will bring up around 10.5:1 depending on your gaskets and yes, they'll work and deliver more torque. I say bolt that 6.0 right up to your 4L60 'cuz if it ain't broke, don't fix it. The ticking could be anything from an injector to a lifter. For $500, I'd swap in the cam and pushrods you own and get 'er running.
.02 in.

 

you gonna buy me one grady??

 

I wasn't really budgeting for it at the moment.... $500 is a great deal for a 6.0...know of anymore that nobody wants/needs.

 

carter has one for 350 ask for mike..needs rebuilt

 

Carter as in Okarche Carter Chevrolet?? If so, my brother-in-law has a nice connection down there so I might be able to get a good deal...

 

go for it..build a 408..
