Ordered my 6.0

[JKmotorsports]

idk if youve pulled a motor from the nbs yet, but it sucks lol..

took me all afternoon/night to get the bellhoulsing bolts and torque converter bolts out along with unhooking all the wires..and also the ****** drain plug on the trans pan stripped after one turn lol..******** aluminum bolts..

im hopin to get the 6.0 in today if all goes wellwe shall see..good luck to you as well

I replaced a 6.0 in one of my buddy's Silverado last year. Wasn't too bad. But yea, as with most engine swaps, getting to the top trans bolts and tc bolts is usually one of the worst parts.
Good luck on your swap too bro. Keep us updated on how it goes.

What size cam did you go with?

I went with the Lingenfelter gt 2-3.

Any progress made after that?

Haven't had a chance to really do anything yet. I went to work Sat for a few hours and went home feeling like crap and just laid down the rest of the day. I just barely woke up a little while ago and still feel like crap, though not as bad. Hopefully I'll feel good enough later this afternoon to get started.

What a crappy weekend. I stayed in bed most of the day Sat afternoon and Sunday feeling like crap. I was hoping to have the motor in by today, but obviously that isn't happening. At least I have some cool brothers that share the same interests as I do. Two of them went ahead and pulled the old motor out for me yesterday. So today I'll probably install the cam into the new motor and swap over all the accessories and get it ready to install this weekend.

Trust me...nobody knows better than ME just how much they wish they had a JK-get-better pill this weekend. I did resolve to buy a 6.0 and start building it though....
