Im thinking about picking up a 6.0 out of a 2005 caddy EXT. If im correct this would be a LQ9?? I wanted to build it up as a budget backup motor.

I guess my first question is, is this an LQ9?
This will just drop right in right? I would basically be just using the short block and heads off of the 6.0 and everything else would bolt up from my LS1?

I was planning on throwing in a SDPC nitrous cam, new springs.
Up grade the n2o system and fuel system and hitting it with a 150-250rwhp shot.

Is this a bad idea?
Any input is welcome.

It would work fine!

I would check out a standalone fuel system, with that you can spray a pretty big shot on a stock motor. Pressure drop kills motors, with the standalone, you basically eliminate that.

Yes, that's an LQ9. Yes, it will drop right in. No, it sounds like a fine idea.
