what did the 6.0 come out of? most lq9's are going to come from high end trucks/suvs like the escalade's denali's etc.. lq4 6.0's were in regular 2500hd's bla bla bla
they are both the same except the pistons lq4 are dished, lq9 are flat. lq9 maybe 10-15hp more.
Either one would work better then a trashed ls1. I have a lq9 and I'm happy. Wished I'd found an aluminum black but oh well.
Everything bolts up, they are almost identical. The lq blocks lacks one bolt hole for the alternator that you don't "need". You can easily drill and tap though.
