Yeah, yeah... I know there's going to be some electronics issues(hopefully none that can't be easily solved). And I know I could get the same or better horsepower from any number of engine mods(stroking, supercharging, etc). But what I was getting at is that the new 6.2 is a much more solid performer with a 6 speed tranny and will get better MPG.
I don't want a HP monster, as I've seen too many component failures with that route. I just want a few more ponies without going directly to the land of potential breakage.

I'm wondering if I can get someone to pull a couple of strings to special order this from GM if I was willing to pay the $$$? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

If money isn't an issue, go with the 8.0l 502 cu inch monster. No need for a blower or turbo. No replacement for displacement. It's going to have a lot more similar electrical systems than the 6.2/6speed combo
