Default New Engine For My Truck 6.0

hi guys

I was just wondering if there was some kind of built motor package i could get for my escalade and bolt it up with all the old harnesses and pcm and such... possibly like a built 6.0 Vortec or something?

is there such a thing?
or is there something that is a direct swap and will fit with no mods to the electrical stuff besides tuning?

LS7 or LS3? will it work? something else??


thanks
J

If it's an Escalade, chances are you already have the high output LQ9 6.0L with 345hp. You can do a few things to make that motor push low 400's without breaking the bank. If all you want to do is swap in a motor and bolt everything up, look to a few of the sponsors on the right of your screen and have them ship you a pre-built 408ci 6.7L. The sale of your LQ9 6.0L will surely offset the cost a great deal of a package 408, after you do the swap. They can make it so all you do is swap short blocks and hook everything right back up. Find a local tuner in your area to re-tune the computer and off ya go. 500hp and similar torque can be had with ease out of the 6.7L.
