Default L92 to lq4 possible?

I know I'm go na catch sum bs on this one but I hav an 07 escalade that's my wife's and an 02 silverado that's mine. So here it goes I want to put the 6.0 n the escalade and the 6.2 n the silverado. I know the relucter rings r different and lingenfelter has the adaptor for l92-lq4 but I want to go backwards. Any info will b appreciated thanks. Is the relucter ring the only thing holdin me back or am I missin somethin else besides a tune.

Not nearly worth the effort imo. Nothing wrong with your 6.0L just do some bolt ons a cam and a tune and you'll eat that stock L92 for breaky lunch and dinner and be a LOT less headaches, time, and effort. Probably save money too by the time your all done.

Or a 6.2 shortblock. Cheaper and easier than doing this swap.
