i know nothing about these engines, except that i do know mine has the aluminum heads and i think are called lq4's?? my question is what type of cams are availible for them? i dont want anything radical, just something a step or 2 above stock..a supercharger or turbo is out of my budget loll i want to also put a cold air intake, a quadzilla stealth 2 programmer and a corsa sport exhaust on it sometime soon
thanks for ANY info on these engines!!
its a dd leave it alone u will save a lot of headackes put your mony in a toy that way when the toy is broke u can put it on the back berner if u have to

If I was to do it I would call comp cams and have them custom gtind me 1.
ive got a 01 6.0 in my truck i want a aluminun intake for it and havent found any all u need for the 6.0 is a programmer they are way under tuned from the factory ive been told by lotsa mechanics that these engine are know for blowin intake gaskets around 100000 but ive got almost 180000 on mine and nothin yet good luck with the search on after market stuff if ya find cool stuff let us know
Few issues with the 6.0 theyre known for leaking intake gaskets, intake warpage, computer control problems, especially 2000-2006 always see electrical problems with dashes not working, fuel gauges not working, random misfires and stuff...
Im a gm mechanic and the 6.0 is a great torque engine I agree if you want a cam call com and give them any infor that you can and they will make you a cam fitted to your application kinda pricey though the intake gaskets do go bad but only cause a lean code no fluids in the intakes on these engines they are very durable engines.

ive got this problem right now with the fuel gauge it went bad last summer put in a new pump worked great now it doesnt read right all the time if i just turn the key right 2 start the guage reads wrong if i let it sit in on 4 a second and the gauge comes up it reads right i just keep gas in it so i dont run out
Thanks for the info! Im going to end up going with a comp cam and a custom tune that buddy can do for me :)
