2011 Chevrolet 6.0 L77 Motor and 6-speed 6L80 a good choice? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

With wiring and computer. Worth $6800? A good one to put in my 70?

If its 100% complete with every accessory and the dbw pedal etc, then I'd consider it....but its still pretty dang expensive.

$6800 is about what I put into doing my swap, but that also includes a huge percentage of mods, getting a fully built trans, wheels, a full hydroboost setup etc.

It would really depend on the mileage for one, is this installed or just the motor/trans/wiring/accessories?

If it is just the motor/trans/wiring/accessories, too much IMO.

Mileage? Shipped?

Here's some info on the L77: http://www.ls-guy.com/l77/

I have to agree with Br3w and Clyde that is too high even if the mileage is low. Get an older one and save the coin for upgrades

I am checking on the mileage and other things mentioned. No shipping, I can pick it up locally. Not installed. What would be a good deal on a setup like this if it is indeed low mileage?

A boardmember (rusbuilt) had a 2011 6.0/6L90 with 45K miles for around $5K I belive.
