yea i f-ed that ls1 up and the thing is it only had 13k on it lol. when i pulled that head off and saw that cylinder i started laughing my ass off. but yea its coming along better than i though. now im just waiting on my gaskets to arrive so i can swap the pan and what not over to the new motor and get that back in the car. but ill probably be sending my computer out to brian at pcm for less in the next week or so. so that i have it ready to go when the car is back together.

I don't see any major problems with your old engine. Man you wasted a lot of swapping engines!

that looks familiar haha, I'll have to post some pics of mine when I get them off my phone,The jest of it is the number 4 piston was gone and the complete front half of the oil pan went with it leaving a nice whole in the bottom of the block and it managed to destroy a valve and break a titanium valve spring(again this was at 2700rpm roughly 35 MPH)!!
And he swears the nos purge unit was jsut for show lol, it was either sprayed the hell out of it or had a spun bearing that was covered up by the sound of the cam and rigged exhaust lol.

nothing is really bolted to the motor now just kinda in place all the front drive,intake and headers are coming off. im going to drop the 6.0 in the car and am leave the engine hooked to he hoist so i can slide the headers in place while i still have clearance. i dont want to chance laying them in place and dropping the motor in if i do it by myself.

erik, did u buy the pan head bolt kit for the valley. I've heard of people cracking their fast's becuase they didn't swap the bolts on the valley cover. May have only been an ls1 thing...not sure.

gotcha. I wasn't sure if you picked up the intake used or not. Didn't wanna see you mess up a brand new motor. If you need a hand with anything, just give me a call. This weekend I'm busy, but if you need a hand early next week I might be able to head out. Probably gonna be in your neck of the woods on Monday anyway.

well the stage 2 monster clutch i ordered is suppose to have stock pedal feel but is rated to 525hp/tq. this one isnt ment for alot of track use but thats fine because i dont take it to the track often at all(only once since ive bought the car)
