I found a good used one, I heard it run and bought it. It took a few months to find it but well WELL worth it.

It moves as quick as a Civic now. LOL hit the pedal and Gone......

Yeah Way better, I think there may have been something wrong in the old motor but hard to tell cause it ran so good, but no power,It was a dog on the high way

My 6.0 should be here today so will be going in this weekend, i ordered my bb tune so hopefully ill have that soon too! Cant wait!

That is awesome. That's the biggest shortcoming with my truck. It really could use more power, and more torque. I have a 1993 Ramcharger 5.9 with only 230 horsepower, but it never feels sluggish like my 5.3 does at times, I think because of the torque.

This is something I'd like to do, but my 5.3 is chugging along perfectly with 165k miles, so won't be messing with it any time soon. Enjoy your truck.

Not sure if you have done a LS engine change but it's easy and possible to have it out and back in, in a day.
Is yours comming with pan and covers?
