Default 6.0L ?s.

Does this sound like a decent combo, a 6.0L out of a 3/4 ton truck, with home ported LS1 heads, LS6 intake, with a ported Tb, heads? Any thing that sould be changed, and what would be a good cam, aftermarket, or stock cam out of a _____ ?

What is the deal with the LQ? motors?

And what or how to put a LS? motor in a 93-97 camaro or ta?

Thanks.

are you going for high compression then? or do you plan on supercharge/turbo

also you might want to think about getting it bored out and stroking it....i think you can get that motor to 408 cubes....then you can make some serious power

Keep the truck heads and deck them to get a better cr. throw in a stock ls2 cam for damn near 400 hp if you port the heads well

I ahve seen these motors with just a cam swap make 430-450 fwhp. They have the LS6 design heads with a larger chamber. A cam in the 230/238 .590/.600 ish range work very well on them. With ported heads,a good cam and intake I have seen some make as much as 466 rwhp on the stock bore/stroke! I just built one for a fox body and it made 493 fwhp with the above mentioned parts (stock heads)!
