    You Kurt should look at the big picture on this swap.Does a 6.0 truck have a different rear end gear ratio as a example.I have read on other forums the 6.0 is a real gas hog.

    The other thought Kurt is we build and swap engines and hopefully in the end they are worth more money.You with your truck is worth quite abit now stock.Maybe with this swap it wouldn't be worth as much.Might want to give that some consideration Kurt.

    Kurt-this link is about stroker LS's but it does also go into differences in the stock engines and is worth a read.

    Thanks Matt, I think I was typing and thinking at the same time or close as you.
    Easier allways works better for me, since I am in the middle of no where now.
