Re: Did I mess up?

What would a fair price for a 6.0 be? It looks like they are referred to as LQ4 or LQ9, is that correct? I don't know nothing bout nothing when it comes to these new motors so I am learning as I go. Cheers

Re: Did I mess up?

Hey bud. I bought a lq9 from a Caddy ESV, cost me 1900 bucks with 133k. I don't care what anybody tells you, don't buy anything unless you can SEE IT and HEAR IT run first ! Good Luck.

Re: Did I mess up?

thanks 80 sierra. sorta what I was thinking but it is kinda tough to find one in the car that runs. most of the wrecks I have seen on the 'puter are destroyed in the front. It looks like an ordeal just to get em out. I was hoping to have it done by deer season/October but I am not in a real rush, so I can wait for a decent deal. This thread has been great. I think I would probably lean towards the 6.0.

Re: Did I mess up?

That's a pretty cool article. Beyond my skill level, and my wifes patience level. I have a 95 z71 that I have get rid of and thought about parting out but I haven't done it. I would sell the whole truck for a grand but I cant even sell it for that. That would be some of my swap money.
