A car buddy of mine runs a 6.0 in his 72 Nova. He did the L92 head swap and with a "medium" size cam it did 420 hp on the chassis dyno. I know not huge numbers but it has a good lope to it and it was a piece of cake to tune per the tuner. I think the cam was in the 230I/240E range. In my 68 C10 LS6 swapped I'm running Diamond forged pistons and Scat H beam rods. It's been bullet proof after 8 years.
