Default I picked up twins!
02 Tahoe 5.3l and a 04 Silverado 5.3l ...$350 for the pair...02 ran and the 04 had a intake fire. Punching them both out to 5.7L and one for my 85 vette and one for my 99 GMC Sierra.

Vette engine plans:
LS6 intake
naughty cam
ls1 vette heads
Any other ideas? Not going to Supercharge or Turbo. Don't wanna hear about 6.0l blah blah blah this or that.

Truck engine is still in the dream state.

Where can you get ls6 heads for $400 a pair?


Engines are the LM7 or L59 (Flex Fuel) variety. Vin T, Z respectively.
