I have been looking for a tow setup video. Last yr we pulled a 4500lb camper through the hills and several times I found that I was running 4800 rpm's (normal is 1900 @ 70mph empty) for an extended time. This truck is my daily driver so I don't need anything radical but a little more low end power would be fun. Hoping to find a DIY setup. Thanks, if you have a chance to make us truck owners a tow/haul improvement video.

It’s not expensive.. if you want to make the power these engines make you would have to spend more on the older engines. End of day they are cheaper. You can get a 385 hp 6.0 for $1900 and slap it on a car and call it a day. For you to get 385 hp from a sbc 350 you’re looking at $500 for the block $2000 for a good set of heads. $800 for the complete cam kit and $400 for an intake. You ended up paying more to make same power with sbc.

@@Miguelspl150 Not always true. I can source complete small blocks for much cheaper than that price but at the same time, I can source a 6.0 for about the same price. You cant get a 6.0 running in a car nearly as cheap as a carbed, mechanical pumped sbc. The cost of computer components, ignition, and tuning makes for less than an affordable swap.

@@richardholdener1727 thanks! Can you suggest one? And so playing with the heads with porting and milling isn’t cost effective? I’m amazed that the bigger trucks like my current 2018 6.2 with just minimal mods gets 26mpg @ 65mph while the smaller trucks with a v8 struggle to get 18mpg which tells me they are not as efficient. I’d consider putting a gear vendors unit on it with the 4l60 if it would help performance and fuel economy.

You have a link for this specific MSD intake? I have a 16 Silverado 5.3 and I’m not sure I’m finding the right one.

done any LT1/6.2 stuff think the biggermotor can hit 600+ na easy, I just got my 2021 Camaro and I'm itching for more power already, flycutting pistons seems like a lot of hassle, I know if I'm opening my motor its getting pistons and rods at least!
