'09 6.0 Aluminum motor with L92 heads - Wanting to go Carbed This motor came out of a 2009 truck....what the hell is it? L76, LY6, etc??? I'm an old school LS guy so I can't keep all the L this, L that **** straight lol. Does this motor have VVT or DOD? I don't know how to tell the difference. I bought it as a long block.
I'm putting this motor in a mustang coupe with a Carb conversion. I am putting LS7 lifters in it, a custom L92 designed cam, pushrods & dual springs. What else needs to be changed on this thing in order to use the MSD 6010 style box? Do I have to put a LS2 style timing cover on it? I'm a little lost on this newer stuff.
Thanks,
Matt

How do you tell if it has both VVT and DOD? 4 of the lifters had those goofy springs made onto them. What else do I need to look for?
I won't be using any of that garbage. I think I read somewhere that if you aren't using any of that you can swap out the front timing cover and use an LS2 cover???
