car-L76 (LS2shortblock/L92 heads). Best best is ebay for a take off. 10-13 camaros w'LS3 or L99. A LS3 powered Vette will work too.

67Skylark,
Are you using the stock LY6 balancer? If so, didn't you need to space out the Vete alt/ps to align with the Camaro5 WP & LY6 balancer?

I have a Vette WP and GMPP Vette FEAD waiting to go on my LY6. I bought MAST Motorsports wp & FEAD spacers. I hope I don't need to buy anything more.

I like your block orange with natural aluminum heads. Really sharp looking

I'm also building an Ultra4 car with an LY6. I went with an LS3 intake, mounted backwards. The truck throttle body bolted on, but the truck map doesn't work. Im going to get an LS3 map sensor and swap the plug on the harness. Also, the oil pressure switch on the valley cover needs to be cut off and welded or plugged shut if you flip the intake backwards.

I had to space the ps/alt bracket off the head 1.5 inches, was able to have the guys at work cut one with the waterjet but alot of ways to space it out.
