u mean a 6 liter?



u r gonna need some serious wiring work, and the tranny that goes with it, those newer vortecs have a different bellhousing pattern to. Then u gotta get into the fuel delevery and computer stuff... IMO it is not a good idea.



Just build up a carb.

forget that just get a good crate motor and be done with it

Those motors are very similar to the Ls1/LS6 design. Which, both motors are a pita to install.



If you were going to go that route, I\'d get a LS1 or the LS6 motor crate motor.
