you only need valve relief if your cam is running some pretty long duration i think or lots of lift would work too

Why not just try to just get an LS1 block or a 6.0L block? I think it should only be something like $500 more for a used one and a LOT less headaches.

ok, got some new groundwork.

Why don't you just buy a complete 6.0L replace the pistons and rod bolts. Then spray the shiznits out of it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

someone was selling complete 6.0 takeouts for $900, thats a hard price to beat especialy if you plan on rebuilding the thing.

hey matt why dont' you get a 4.8 liter cranks and a ls1 aluminum block and rev the hell out of it?

how about 350 for a 6.0 block, crank rods and pistons? would it be that much better to go 900 and get a complete 6.0, heads intake etc. or just wait and get some s2 heads and use the cam i already have etc.

ok, i bought a 6.0 motor complete, minus manifold and injectors etc. and i'll have a set of heads for cores when i get some S2 heads. i'm getting excited now that i can finaly start my project.

slowverado if you want to get rid of those stock 6.0 heads e-mail me with a price. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

email sent, they aren't the aluminum heads though, they are the iron ones.
