Re: 6.0l short blocks I know that I can get one minus a few of the accessories for about $2k or so. Call some of the auto parts places that specialize in buying mass quantities of product from GM. I find the best deals at those places more than I do through a dealership. If you need a number for a place send me a PM and I can get it for you.

Re: 6.0l short blocks Just called SDPC and got a price for a long block.3200 bucks without the core charge.I think thats a good deal.Put my ls6 intake on and my TR 224 cam with the headers and all the other boltons and think i could make over 400 rwhp with more mid range tq than a ls1.What do you guys think?

Re: 6.0l short blocks the aluminum heads are the high flow heads , similar in flow to ls6 heads but with lower commpression. the iron heads flow considerably less. most people shy away from them.
