I just read in your original post you swapped the bottom end to a 6.0? Or did you swap the whole motor?

If you swapped the heads from the LS1 to the 6.0 and reused the stock head bolts theres a problem right there. Stock bolts are torque to yield and are junk after used one time.

If you swapped in the whole 6.0, could be bent valves,rings, hard to say. We need more info about the motor than "it has no compression"

OP, you need to try to spell things better and use correct grammar. I found all of your posts to be really hard to follow, you'll get more responses if you make it readable.

Did the crank sensor fix work ?

i only swap the bottom end of the 6.0, and i guess yes that could be one of the problems i did reuse the stock bolts so that might be it,

but then i though it could be the valves cos i was running it with out the cats just the stock exhaust manifold.

What the **** is a compression sensor? Are you sure you greased your muffler bearings? Is your ignition fluid topped off?
