350hp is pretty hard to accomplish. I'm estimating that my truck is putting down somewhere in the 400-410hp range, but it is a 6.0L. I think a nice valve job is worth the money. If you get in the 350range, you will blow mid 14s out of the water!

Greetings Slow,

I'm curious about your 6.0L. Is it the standard 6.0 that you worked up or did you start with an LQ9 high output 6.0L?

My LQ9 stock is 345 hp with no modifications.
