Default My LT1 Project

Picked up this low miles 94 M6 car for cheap (fresh rebuild) but the poor guy i got it from had a buddy build it, (bad head gasket and broken rings on install) and lets jut say they are not buddies anymore. Then I picked up a WORN 95 M6 car, in a trade with a very good motor. Let the swapping and used parts buying begin.
