LQ9 & LS2 Help!
LQ9 & LS2 Help! Other than an iron block, different intake, & TB. Are there any differences in these two 6.0L engines? Do they have the same style heads. There is about a $2,000.00 difference in the price from the dealer that would go a long way towards some other supporting mods I want for a project I have going. Thanks in advance for any information you can give me...
iron is stronger and i think its AROUND 100 pounds diff in the 2 not sure of that though... Im at loss if i want to build my ls1 or if i wanna do lq9 block with l92 heads l72 intake and a mild cam ... blah the more i read the more i can not make my mind up lol
What is your project? It makes a difference which one would be best. I also heard the LQ9 has been discontinued by GM and is no longer available. You might not have the option. See this thread;

They are different engines.
LQ9 is Gen 3, LS2 is Gen 4.
Different crank & cam sensors, different heads, different compression ratio, different cam, different intake, different injectors.
I wouldn't buy this stuff from a dealer either. Check out scroggins dicky, they have pretty good deals on motors and can put something together that fits your application.
