6.0 time? ok guys well unfortunately i found out a little over a week ago that my ls1 has a bad bottom end! since then my car has been sitting in the garage while i think of which direction to go and of course to save some damn money!! well ive grown some interest in going for a 6.0 iron short block. so i need some real good info on this swap! what exactly can i take and use from my current block?!? and what extra parts do i need to purchase?!? prices plz?!? now keep in mind i do understand that with this situation i have a real opportunity to build this next set up really good. but right now im honestly looking to do this swap as cheap as possible and as fast as possible to get back on the road. my camaro is my daily driver and im car less right now so its kinda tough. but trust me guys using the work "cheap" in any reference to my car does hurt me and if it hurts you to then rightfully so! basically i need this car alive again asap! then come January i get my new ride and this one gets all the love in the garage that it deserves!!! so any help or advise guys?!? thx~
