Actually, yes they are. That's Ellis' biggest Speed Secret. He figured out how to put LS6 heads on a LT1 block.


So when's it going in the car Ellis? Come on already!

Very nice, and a pro job to boot. You certainly have a spotless shop, which of course is a must for a performance build.

Sweet!!! Good work buddy!!! I can't wait to see it run...... Is it factory Cubes or have you bored/stroked it? I'd imagine anything you'd build for yourself has to be a fun ****.

Default Lt1?

I keep looking at the pictures, but all I see is a LT1? I thought you were building a high performance engine over there.
