If it consistently dies a few seconds after starting, that's usually the fuel pump turning off.

When the key is turned on the fuel pump runs for a few seconds, giving you time to start the engine.

The computer "senses" when the engine is running and normally engages another circuit that leaves the pump running. BUT! if either the sensor or the relay has failed, the fuel pump will be turned off once that initial timer expires after the keyswitch has turned on.

Is a 6.0 vortech same as 454?

A 6.0 Vortech engine and a 454 engine are not the same; they differ significantly in design and specifications. The 6.0 Vortech is a 6.0-liter LS-based engine commonly found in modern GM vehicles, known for its efficiency and versatility. In contrast, the 454 is a big-block V8 engine, typically a 7.4-liter, known for its power and torque, primarily used in older trucks and performance vehicles. Thus, they serve different purposes and are suited for different applications.
