Longblock is officially done. Deciding what we're going to do with the fuel system and then we'll have a runner.

I've seen some LS guys plumb each cyl head with braided lines and fittings so that the coolant is more equally distributed into the heads. it's typically a race only mod but I agree with a v12 it might be a really good idea.

for the work and $$ spent on this little puppy it would be worth it and not overly hard to do.

Default V12 ls cyl.head

Hi... I'm building a 300 ci Ford 6 cyl. motor. I need to know how much it would cost to weld together the ls cyl. Heads to make a 6 cyl. Head. Someone's done this swap before but they epoxied the heads together and it leaked water
If I send you the 2 heads cut already a little long can you finish machine them to length and weld them together. How much would it cost ? Thanks Jack

Any updates? How's it running?

Have you kept track of a total cost and time involved?

Wrong builder. There is another set of individuals doing this now.

This would be epic with 4" bore and the 3.268" stroke from the 4.8L and with 6.46" rods......

I guess the engine would have realistic capacities ranging from 8L to 11L depending on bore, deck height, and stroke combo?

An LS3-12 would become a 9.3 - YES PLEASE

Let me know if anyone is interested in a 1 piece V12 LS camshaft. We...Camshaft machine company can build it to any spec/ timing and lobe profile you need!

Yes I am interested in a 1 piece LS V12 cam. Also a crank. At this time, I am still in the planning stages of the project and I'm trying to gather all resources needed to do the build. The 2 greatest obstacles a can foresee would be the cam and crank. So yes I am interested if you could provide some more info! I'm in CA, BTW.
