Hello,

Im new to the forum and i am in need of some advise.

I have a chance to buy the a 04 6.0L V8 with auto tranny complete with harness and computer for $1000.00. The vehicle it eventually might be going to my 97 Suburban 4WD, currently it has the 5.7 vortec. But i want to get more power and i want to install that drivetrain in my suburban. Now my major concern is is the drive by wire, my suburban has cable, is there a way to convert to the 6.0 to cable? Can i use different intake or? Also, would this require for the ecm to be reprogrammed?

I have build older sbc motors, ls engines and newer are something i have not tried to mess with specially with all the electronic crap.

So what are you guys recommending? Is it worth buying and the rest of work to craft to make it work?



Thank you.
