5.7L Vs 6.0L ~ Worth it?

[azzss]

It depends which way you look at it. I weighed this up as well and went for the 5.7 because there was enough change left for full exhaust and edit (haven't done edit yet) plus at the time 6 litre ones were hard to find used.

i would get a 5.7 with exhaust and edit, it would be more powerful than a stock 6.0 for the same or maybe a little more but not much.

I would go 6.0 litre...so much potential. It is like asking if you would buy a series one vt SS or a series 2.

Think of the Holden 6.0 as LS2 short block with different heads & with a detuned cam.

IE if you put a stock HSV LS2 cam in to the holden 6.0 you would cream the HSV LS2,

This is due to the heads beening fantastic, where as the head son the HSV LS2 are good heads but they are result of progression of Ls1, Ls6 etc heads

So if your likely to go done the modification path cam, Twin turbos, super charged & strokers you best pay the extra doh on the holden 6.0L

the l98 heads are from a 6.2L engine wich they use to power suv's the l98 is a ls2 block.
