6.0L question
I was wonderin if a 6.0l iron blcok with stock internals from the factory with ls6 ported heads a tsp 231/237 cam would be pretty stout? Will the stock bottom end hold up pretty good compared to stock ls1 bottom end? Also I cant seem to find this new Eagle crank thats out and is it any good?

The LS1 and the 6.0 have the same bottom end. Like Rich said, only the pistons are different due to the 4.00" bore. The crank is the last thing you'll need to change. I'd think with that TSP cam, ported LS6 heads, and the rest of the bolt ons you'll make 420-440 depending on transmission and gears. I have the 228R cam and just pulled 385hp and 389tq with stock 6.0 heads through and A4 with 3.73s..

damn those are some good numbers for stock heads and through an A4 and all thats comin through a stock headed 6.0 with bolt ons? What kind of numbers are u puttin down at the track? I was wondering how much a longblock 6.0 would cost cause Ive found a new one that a friend knows but he doesnt know the price and where can I get ls1edit cause cant I just use my stock computer and tune it? One more question....what all doesnt bolt on to the 6.0?
