X2 on the 5.7l being way easier of a swap. Its as simple as adding the two injector wires to the factory harness and having the computer reflashed to run them.

Just cuz it's easy don't mean it's worth it.
The 6.0 will a little more work but in the end it'll be well worth it.

Put a 8.1 in it that would be cool and realy hard I bet.

i think to do the 6.0 you would need a donor truck and essentially swap everything out. i know everybody has a 350 s10 and a 6.0 would be unique, but is the 6.0 even that sought after in the first place? i seldom see anyone using it or aftermarket parts for it.
