Well its been a while since I updated.., Didn't realize I hadn't posted more updates on here.
So We didn't make it to Willows.. After getting the engine all prettied up and set up, set on a test stand, ran it for a bit.. the stock heads pulled a few studs (which the builder pinned). and come to find out he never ported or polished. So I splurged and went with some new AFR heads.. those AFR heads decided to stick a valve, which in turn, flattened my cam, and dispersed shavings thru-ought the bottom end.
After this happened.. I was like, the hell with it.. I'm not about to throw more money into this #s matching motor.. time to move on and shelf that motor. at one time, I didn't want to take the #'s matching motor out, but, I'll be happier with what is to come. Luckily,,, I got an opportunity to get a smoking deal on a new LS6... so... on to the transformation.
