I figured this thread would be 20 pages by now---people must be on vacation already for X-Mas or something.
Good decision!

I have been pushing an LS6 around the shed for 5 or 6 years now at least perhaps longer... When I mentioned this for the '32 - Steve just about convulsed... so can't use it there... Lovely Lillard turned me onto it for my '69 Camaro that I decided not to build and I just never have found a home for it.
Having driven the '55 Post build -- and most recently Jason's LS2 Buwicked - they ARE THE MOTOR. Period. :cheers:

I will add my two cents as well...Greg is definitely one of the good guys.

:thumbsup: x100 to you my good man!

So you are saying Steve is still in the Stone Age ? Doesn't he have the talent to make a LS engine look killer ? You should challenge him and lead him down the path to enlightenment... LOL

Charley,

You might not remember but the LS6 motor is the one you turned me on to all those years ago via a phone call by you from the Purple Parrot @ Hot August Nights during breakfast! I still have the thing floating around.... Unused but not unloved. :lol:

They have the talent. They have used the Ford 4.6 liter in a couple projects.
Just haven't had the right project for a LS engine I guess.

LS motors are just all wrong in a '32 ford.. Unless the styling is all done "hi zoot". Which, to me, is all wrong as well.

I'm going to use the LS6 in my '37 3 window.... But with 8 stacks and hidden coils etc. I had the chassis for that project built for the LS already.

Greg is gaining legendary status here!! I have met the man. Seen the "shed" and all the tools he "can't" use.......;) .

I have to agree with the general opinion here. Greg is one of the real nice guys and always willing to help. I am glad to call him my friend.
Even if he is only 4' 6".:D

Have a great new years eve buddy! :thumbsup:
