2005 6.0 swap in to a 2000 ws6, need some help! asap! im not getting much luck in advanced tech, so here we go.
a buddy of mine spun his rod bearings all to hell in his 2000 ws6. his only fate is to get the tired old 80,000 engine rebuilt. a shop already pulled it and is waiting on him to give them the ok to rebuild it. they quoted him 3200 for the rebuild. instead of going that route we located a clean 7800 mile 6.0 long block locally. the guy told him it was a 2004 but the ad said it was an 05? so which ever. the main questions are:
1. what reluctor wheel is in it? from the pictures i can see the CPS sensor at the rear by the starter like my LS1, so does that mean its 24x?
2. can a T56 and pilot bearing be used with the 6.0 crank?
3. are there any other problems we might face? other than the missing bolt hole we need to drill and tap for the F body alternator bracket?
its a complete long block, minus the valve covers. comes with front/rear covers, valley tray, rockers and valve train, aluminum heads, balancer, and truck oil pan. we need to know ASAP! we hope to scoop it up by monday so the shop can put his car back together.

its all the same. the lq4 and lq9 are based on the ls1 style. and the sensor locations are in the same places, or can be put in the same places.
