Will any of the ls2 parts swap over to my 6.0l chevy truck. In other words what heads cam intake can I pick up and still be smogable but have a little fun with the huge pig of a track. 300hp/340tq at the flywheel isn't cutting it in that pig anymore. Obviously I don't really want a wild setup in a 2500hd truck just somethin a bit more entertaining.

That's good to know. Now the real question! Is it worth tracking down stock replacement parts from some wrecked vette or what have u, or buy aftermarket ls2 hci? I did see a nice set of afr heads for a ls2

Fasthatch: I have no idea what is on that truck. I know ford in out up and down but chevy stuff is foreign to me. Info I know about the truck is as follows. 05 2500hd 6.0 300hp/340tq flywheel which seet of the pants feels like about 50hp/75tq to the wheels but it does tow like a hog. I'm not sure what I'm willing to put in budget wise yet I just know I would enjoy a little more giddy up.

Travster: I can't hang wit u in the V now seein as how u have upgraded to an oldschool. Ur an A lister now and I'm still drivin that greasy old 5.zero

if i can remeber gm puts the cast number on top of the head you would have to pull the valve cover off an check what heads are on it i forget the number on it but one of the ls2-6.0 heads flow pertty good

your 6.0 should have more power than 300hp. is it a lq4 or lq9. ls1tech is a good site for info

I was told in a chest truck forum it should be an lq9 and that's were I was told 300-340 in the 6.0 trucks

From the little info I have been researching the best bang for the buck would be L92 heads(6.2 escalade engines) and a aftermarket cam. This alone will put you at or close to 500hp with a tune. And the heads are obviously smog legal.

Holy he'll that has to be with higher compression or something
 
Posted by Bent70 (Member # 9694) on :
 
i don't know the compression, but these heads are supposed to flow like a mofo.
Alot of guys run this setup in drag cars and in offroad racers.
I've seen the heads for sale at performance trucks.com

GET THE LS3 HEADS THAT COME ON THE 07 AND UP ESCADLE THERE LIKE 800 NEW FLOW 300 CFM
