Even though some want the 6.0 dumped, it's a great engine. Just got off the phone with my friend who hauls trailers and sheds all over Florida. He's got the first gen 6.0 with 300 hp... he now has 360k on it. That's 360k hard pulling miles, not a grocery getting by any means, he really works trucks. He likes it so much he's looking at another 6.0 truck to replace it with. Not because of any engine issues mind you... just needs a transmission cause he's got no reverse now. I'm sure he will keep the old one around for a secondary truck... So if GM does replace that engine, it has to live up to the 6.0... my thought only but they will probably keep the 6.0 and add direct injection and other mods to bump the power around 400 horse. It's actually pretty easy with this engine...
But would it be as reliable with gdi?
