i want to eventually build a LS1 or LS6 but i don't have the know-how yet. Are there any books i could get that tell/show you how to?

 

Will Handzel's book "How to Build High-Performance Chevy LS1/LS6 V-8s" I have this book and it outlines a few setups. Good step by step instructions and good b+w pics. Great instructions for extracting the ls1. Also has some interesting info/ history of the gen 3 sbc. Its a good read and its fairly cheep.

step by step showing how to build from block to complete? cuz thats pretty much what im after

 

Yup. Great book.

 

Auto Zone has a nice one.. about $20.00

 

Chevy Ls1\Ls6 Performance from HPBooks

 

I have that one also, it's a great book. It doesnt necessarily cover how to build the motor but does hit on every aspect of performance upgrades, all the free mods, as well as covering basic camshaft functions.

 

I bought the "how to build an ls1/ls6 v8" a while back and it was definetly a good book to get i learned a lot from it. Its worth the money.
