Anyone ever swap a short block Ly6 into a 2001 ws6
I picked one up for free. Jus a short block. It spun barring so I was thingin I could do a 408 build. Not sure what all will swap over from my build now tho. Which is 317 heads mild work 102 fast intake and a 78mm turbo. I have also heard about vvt on these motors is that something I should keep or what. Anyway any advice is much appreciated.

Your heads intake and turbo will work.
Delete the VVT, its not hard.

The LY6 has a 58x crank wheel. Your WS6 ECU won't run it without a converter box.

Thanks for input
I've heard about a delete for the vvt any info on it

Also what about my accessories will those swap over as (as in the stock ls1 stuff)

Almost everything will swap. Alternator bracket depends on whether or not the block is drilled there. My 5.3 was, but some aren't.

I have an LY6 in the garage, I'll have to go check later.

My '10 LY6 was not drilled. I would assume since they are used in trucks, that none of the blocks would be drilled for an F-body alternator bracket.

I wouldn't think so either but that's not a hard task to do , I wouldn't think anyway.

I've got another question my kit is a ac retaining , so I have the condenser rad and fans up against my turbo and I still have the crossover power steering deal too, what would you do to delete that to save some more room
