You got to make sure the IMG is in brackets all around it. Quote this post and you will see what I mean.

Your 2nd attempt would have worked, but it appears to be missing the "closing" tag at the end -

Before the link to the image, you need an opening tag {IMG} & after the link, you need a closing tag {/IMG}. So, it should look like

{IMG}http://link.to/image{/IMG}


(Just replace the curly brackets with square brackets, & it'll work.)

Thanks Merv!
I will get new pictures tomorrow that show the LS6 and T56....I am pretty happy how things are going. I have a brand new Martz aftermarket front end under it now...much lighter and much more clearance for everything. The car is rust free Arizona car...NEVER had rust..all original metal including quarters. Obviously the blown 540 and Lenco are gone....the LS6 will be much more driveable on the street!! Two miles per gallon really sucked...literally :-(

From the GM documents - a bare LS1 is 394 pounds, 434 with all accessories. Should be the same for the LS2 and LS6. The sump is different in the LS7 and it's a 427 so it could be a few pounds heavier, but probably under 20 pounds different.
