Default After Info

Hi everyone. I have just recently bought a LQ9 and want to find out info on it. What power can i expect out of it and what potential does it have while still keeping it reliable. It is going in to a Nissan Patrol that is being built up for high speed offroad work.
What vehicle do these engines originally come out of?
Sorry if this is in the wrong section of the forum but i wasnt sure where to put it.

LQ9 is the RPO (regular production option) code for the 6.0L V8 engine GM uses in several high performance truck applications. This engine is very similar in design to the current generation of medium-displacement V8s used in GM’s cars and light trucks. The engine shares many features with the LS1 engine used in the Camaro/Firebird/Corvette car lineup, as well as the LS2 engine currently used in the C6 corvette, GTO, SSR, etc
