When you figure in the cost of shipping and engine and trans, the price of a 6.0 will not really be that much more the 5.3. You should figure out what you really want, then go after that. If you think you might want to have a kick ass street/strip truck or just a reliable cruiser and are not planning on more than ~350 hp. If you want the cruiser get the 5.3 and save $400.

The car engines still cost an arm and a leg.
