Still, an Airraid CAI won’t make a .6 second difference in the 1/4. That tune was clearly a hindrance.

I do not see alot of talk on the L92 6.2. I am looking at getting an 07 Yukon Denali to pull an 18 - 20' enclosed trailer for my sons gokarts. Are the gear ratios listed on the first page good for the Yukons? I really dont want a 3/4 ton, will the the Yukon or the LTZ 6 liter Suburban handle this? I am more acclimated to the 2500 and 3500 trucks just getting tired of the high Diesel and maintence. Thanks for the help.

I have a 08 SD with the L92 and it's kick@$$! I've nevered towed with it, but street race, and won plenty!

Can we just close & delete this thread? :smoker:

 

Actually appreciate getting to read all the info. But still kicking myself as yesterday I missed a insane deal on a left over all black '11 ex-cab w/6.2. Found it online & dealer was 200+ miles away. They had put some 20" wheels on it that I wasn't impressed with, should have just shut up & sent the deposit. :banghead:

Can you start a thread " I hate my 6.2 & wish I bought a 4.8". Only kidding, will be looking for a '12 6.2 later in the year.

Get it while you can! This will be the last year for the 6.2.

 

 

Wow! If that's the case, we may be sitting on a rarer breed than we think! Could there possibly be fewer 6.2 Silverados per MY offered on the road than Corvettes of the same MY? Where would one find the production figures to confirm or repudiate that supposition?

Until I see something in writing I don't believe this.

Probably not far from the truth because the new gen truck engines will produce similar numbers while at the same time pulling down better mpg numbers as well. Wait and see is all we can do.

I doubt the legitimacy of this statement; however, if true I'm glad I got mine when I did.

Take it fwiw......http://news.pickuptr...ck-engines.html

 

 

I don't see where the 6.2L is getting discontinued.. just moved up to the HD class. They are not going to put the 7.0L in them as originally planned.

 

Heavy-duty trucks are said to receive an exclusive 6.2-liter V-8. Currently, a 6.2-liter V-8 is only available for the 2007-12 Silverado and Sierra 1500 half-tons. Light- and heavy-duty models would share a 6.0-liter V-8 that’s currently only available for 2007-2012 Silverado and Sierra HD pickups. In early planning for both large displacement V-8s, supercharging was considered as an option (similar to the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 concept truck) for maximum power while maintaining fuel efficiency. However, supercharging has been dropped from consideration for now.

    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that. 
    • "Life is getting back to normal."    I'm driving again and all new joints are operating as expected for this stage of recovery.   My most recent joint replacement still requires a lot of attention but experience has taught me that time will quiet the remaining pain.  I joked with my surgeon that another joint replacement would take my mind off my most recent surgery and he responded by saying the next will be a hip!  There are no plans for another surgery but, unlike me, I don't think he was joking!  I certainly wouldn't refuse further replacement  if required but hope to spend time out of the "post-op"  period.  I can't stress enough that if you have been recommended for total hip, knee or shoulder replacement that you welcome the offer.  Post-op "recovery" may sound daunting and painful, however, this is far better than the insidious erosion of mobility you are currently experiencing.  Imagine what it would feel like to wake up most mornings feeling better and more mobile than you did the previous day!  Prior to my first surgery in June 2025, even getting out of bed was becoming a formidable task.  Since the day after my first surgery, I get out of bed everyday easily and unassisted.  Making the switch to feeling a little better each day rather than a little worse, is hugely motivating!
