[QUOTE="Tommye, post: 27082, member: 14257"] yes your correct the Silverado has the 6.0 I’d really like to build off the 6.0 platform. The truck doesn’t get driven as much as the suburban so I plan to do the truck first and then try to get the suburban done in a weekend or 2 as long as I don’t have to tear into the engine. I have not concussed lax I just figured they want stupid money for them this is one of my first few builds and I’m not trying to go crazy my goal is a reliable 375-400 whp out of the Silverado. If I was able to source a wrecked car with the lsx on it that could definitely make it a possibility. I did plan to do stock gm heads that flow a bit better than the ones on it now and for the cam I’ve heard of the truck Norris cam a bunch and I’ve also heard every cam is a boost cam if you want it to be lol I really just want the best bang for my buck I’ll do some more research on a cam as for the blower I do have a bit of time to save for it. I’d like to have the truck completely done tune and all N.A. by the end of the summer I’ve got a full time job and a family so I can’t give it my full time but I definitely want to get started I’ve got most the tools I need just wanted a bit of a heads up on parts or things you guys went through. The Holdeners videos on YouTube is where my motivation comes from that man can do some crazy stuff with gm engines . As for the suburban yes it has a lifter issue I will have to no matter what get into the top end of it pull the heads and what not I would like to rip it out and just do a full rebuild. It’s got 220k miles and it’s ran with this tick or Knock for for the last 100k atleast. Regardless what’s your pick on engine rebuild kit for the 6.0? As I’ll probably do it twice [/QUOTE]
