Default ls6 shortblock.

Like it says ls6 shortblock. less than 49000 miles. All in all I got about 600 in this setup, and thats what I want out of it. Pic and details can be foundhere I bought from this guy. It has sat in my living room ever since. I just decided to go a different route.

Also have LS1 shortblock. Motor was knocking. Cam bearings look like ****. Have not looked at rod bearing yet. probably needs new bearings and maybe crank turned. i will take 400 obo on this one. mileage is really unknown.

Would make a trade for pistons and rods (forged na nitrous setup). fast 90/92 intake or TB 6.0 block, or 9 inch or 12 bolt, or pro stars (plus cash on my part on any),

could make either one a complete longblock if needed for a little more cash.

Sure. I would sell my 243's for the right price, but i wont give them away. They are of a z06 and have the sodium filled valves. I would also include the pushrods you would need. 600 more though.

yes, and no. there are some casting differances. bay to bay breathing or something. Honestly the only reason I was looking for the ls6 is to use the ls6 valley cover, which has the ls6 pcv system. You can use the ls6 valley cover on the ls1 buy you have to grind a little on the block.

So performance no. No more oil in the intake yes. Granted there are other ways to keep oil out of the intake.
