Safe to drive? 6.2 cammed with 6.0 Tune.
I have a 2WD V6 NBS Silverado that we are putting a 6.2 (LQ9 bored out with LS3 internals) with a small cam in (https://sdparts.com/i-22100609-sdpc-...5-560-114.html). A local shop seems to think that I will be able to drive this safely to a performance shop to dyno (roughly 150~ miles away) if they reflash me for a stock 2006 SS Silverado (2WD) tune and reprogram my gauges for the same vin as the SS.
Will the truck even work right if they load in a different vin and will it be safe to drive it to the performance shop to dyno being that a SS is a 6.0 and this is a 6.2 with a cam?

Are you changing injectors too??
Hopefully you are because stock 6.0 injectors won't support the power you want. If you change them later and run the stock injector data it would run okay on a stock 6.0 calibration but without data logs to see how bad it is just cruising around I'm not sure driving it 150 miles is what I'd want to do.
The VIN number means nothing when it comes to the engine running. If you have emissions testing and OBD2 checks that VIN will cause you to fail because it's different that what you title says and the dash.

If you want to make any power, yes those injectors are a bad choice. They are barely large enough for a mildly modded 6.0 and tap out very quick. A 6.2 with a cam swap and support mods will be way over 100% duty cycle. You need 40-50lb/hr injectors for something like this to make sure you have enough fuel injector.
It would run on the factory injectors but you wouldn't want to do anymore than just putt around with them.

I have some 12613412 52lb injectors if you're interested. Don't know which harness you have, they are EV6 connector, but I have adapaters from EV6 to the "truck" connector. If you used a gen4 or gen3 flex fuel harness, you won't need the adapaters. $150 shipped. I can do 3 day priority. Anything faster and we'll have to discuss additional costs
