6.0 with fuel injection build in a truck

Anyone done this yet? I figured the GTO would be the best start at a project like this? or maybe some other vehicle would be better. I would like to get a modern 6.0 with FI backed by a auto tranny. I am doing this set up in a daily driver C10. Who has done it? Where did the motor tranny come from? what years of stuff to look for?

Board member Lucky H. did one...His motor came from a yukon I think and he went with the carb/msd controller setup

Re: 6.0 with fuel injection build in a truck

I have a 6.0 from an '03 Escalade in my 68 C10. FAST XFI computer and FAST harnesses. No tranny yet. I'm gonna try and run the GM 6 speed automatic X15R with it. It can be done. Just trying to figure out if I want to spend $3300 on the tranny.

Re: 6.0 with fuel injection build in a truck

What kind of money is everyone spending on the components?

Ill look through everyones build thread.

I am thinking more along the lines of an LS2 set up with auto tranny. I found everything brand new for 10k. Im sure I can get a wrecked GTO or something for less with an auto tranny.

There are a million of these LS motors on ebay. To be quite honest with you I got both of mine off of there. I got the iron 6.0 blocks. #1 will be going into my C10. #2 is in my '72 Chevelle. Here are the links to both of my motors......

1)http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...K%3AMEWAX%3AIT

2)http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=120403910548
