If there was no electronics between the gas pedal and the throttle the truck would shred the tires at the slightest tap of the foot.
That engine is out of the LS league.

Here ya go. This is a 2005 6.0 LQ4 I installed in a 72 4x4 blazer. It's bone stock down to the exhaust manifolds and 80K miles. Drive by wire, A/C etc... I put a 4L60E behind it, and it's running 33" tires no less with only 3.73 gears. Shaped like a brick and runs 14.30's in the mid 90's for mph. Almost finished the 1/4 mile in second gear as you can hear. Needed more gear. Weighs just over 5,000 lbs. without a driver. I didn't air down tires or even pop the hood. Just drove it in over 100 miles, no burnout, and raced it. This was also our daily driver for about 3 years. 22 mpg highway. This is me smoking a brand new 2010 SS Camaro. Just be glad you didn't run up against this in your tundra

Put me at 5000lbs and you are dust. My truck is 5700lbs+. AND you are driving a 6.0 vs a 5.7
That LS is not even in the same league as a quad cam, 32 valve HEMI. The engine is a overbuilt beast.
I mean, a pushrod 2 valve engine will have better mid range and low end, but in the end can not keep up.
