6.0l in a 1500?


Recommended Posts

Posted

You can get it in a 2WD extended cab with the K model front suspension. I think the option code is B4V

 

Same 345hp HO 6.0L LQ9 & 4L65-E tranny as the SS but no SS package and no AWD.

Yea they put the 6.0 in a tank and called it a VHO.  Dam GM.  Gotta make your own light fast truck.

 

 

 

I thought they put it in the denali 1500 ext cab quadrasteers a couple of years ago?

Yes but they were big and heavy. The VHO was GM's most recent venture with the LQ9.

While for ' 06 some of us can get a 6.0 in a 1500 4X4.......

They are going to offer a "VortecMax Performance Package" for '06

Its RPO option code "NHT" which stands for "Enhanced Towing Performance Pkg."

It will consist of...

"LQ9" High-Output 6.0 with 345HP/380LB.FT.of Torque,

"M70" 4spd. "Super-Duty" Automatic Trans.,

"GT5" 4.10 axle ratio,

"G80" locking rear diff.,

"ZX3" ride-control suspension (You can't get Z71 with it-the ZX3 is the only susp.pkg.avail.,but its an adjustable system)

"NP8" AutoTrac transfer case,

"KC4" auxilary engine oil cooler,

"KNP" auxilary transmission oil cooler,

"Z82" H.D. trailering equipment pkg.,

"P25" 17"x7.5" polished cast-aluminum wheels and P265/70R17 on/off road tires (Either blackwall or white letter)

Its only going to be available on the 1/2 ton 4WD crew-cabs or the 1/2 ton 4WD ext.cab std.beds (which is the short bed as we know it now,but for '06 their going to offer the "shorty-short bed" thats on the 1/2 ton crew-cabs on the ext.cabs-which means you'll now have three bed lengths to choose from on the ext.cab trucks for '06,So if you go into your dealer and ask for a short-bed you better specify which short bed you want!-confusing isn't it? Oh,by the way their dropping the "E62" step-side bed option for '06)

Yea,All the 1500HD's (And 2500LD's) have the 6 liter,but its not the "H.O." 6 liter,His would have the "LQ4" with 300 HP.

There were some RCSB 2wd GMCs with the 6.0L also.  You could order them a couple of years ago.

 

 

 

 

You sure ?!!? I've never seen this beast from the General. I've seen a few *tuner*-types, like the Joe Gibbs and such, but never a factory-offered 6.0 rc ....

 

Just wondering...

 

If GM would ever pull i's head out of it's butt, we might could get sweet offerings like this :seeya:

There is a GMC / Chevrolet dealer in Orland Ca. that has a 05 GMC 1500 X-Cab 2wd SLE with factory 20's and the 6.0 H.O. engine. It is a special edition model and I believe it shows this option on the new truck KBB site.

because i was wanting to get a new truck when i turn 20 which is about 2 months and was wondering if i could get it.
