AFM makes no sense since the 2500 series is exempt from CAFE...

 

In regards to the 3800 V6, it was a great engine. The LS cylinder head is better with its cathedral  shape and revs better. The 3800 was EFFICIENT, but at low rpms. 

Yes, but imagine a 3800 "Series IV" with some LS head treatment love. Woulda loved to see it but they just moved to the 60* DOHC platform for the V6's.

Speaking of V-6's and large gasoline engines for trucks, there was this other V-6 GM built years ago:

GM had some big cubic inch v-6 powered trucks in the sixties. Not pick-up trucks but big trucks . Small to moderate cid in pick up trucks.

it may be wishful thinking, but I’d like to swap this new 6.6L gas in for my 6.0 after it dies at 900,000 miles ?

The 6.0 may be a dinosaur and a dinosaur is in the reptile family.  Some reptile species are known to outlive humans therefore making the title of the thread highly accurate when referencing the 6.0 to a dinosaur.  I do believe someone on this forum has their 6.0l, 6l90 combo up to 500,000 miles without major repairs.
