If you’re talking about GMs 305 HP V6 don’t hold your breath. GM most like not release it as a crate motor until it is obsolete by a newer motor. Also I don’t think there is an aftermarket computer that will push that level of an engine. I’ll bet the engine computer combo would be pushing 15K if/when it is released.

Your best bet is to find a wrecked Caddy or Camaro, even then it will be much more then a new LS1 crate motor. Your going to have to find someone that is very good with automotive computers to get this thing to work. I do not know of a aftermarket system that will support that level of complexity.

you can buy a 4.3 marine based engine for a nearly 100 hp bump that will still bolt into your truck. pm me if you want details
