Default Ls6 Intake manifold on 6.0 engine

I have a 6.0 truck engine and want to put the LS6 intake on it. I've heard that the fuel injectors are different and you have to modify the incjector harness to get them to fit. Has anyone done this before? And do they make adapters for the wiring harness?

Not that simple. The probelm is the injector connectors on the truck harness do not fit the injectors used in the LS1/LS6 manifolds. I looked into using a truck harness on my LS1. There may be injectors that fit the LS6 manifold and truck harness connectors. But I did not find them. Worst case scenario you splice in the LS1/6 injector connections. I don't know of any adapters, but I stopped my research into the subject before digging too deep. Good luck.

The car intake won`t clear the truck accessories, the altenator idler pulley and throttle body try for the same space, I read that a while back and the same post said someone in the truck forum figured out a way around the problem but I never checked to see how it worked.

I did an LS6 swap on to the 6.0L. Use this link to see some of the things you will have to do. http://www.performancetrucks.net/for...swap+on+a+6.0l
