Are you expecting different answers? The LS6 is a 5.7 gen III engine.

the ls6 block is the same as a LS1 with minor variences. nothing but braging rights thats all. so if you have a small dick then saying "I have a LS6 block in my truck" then go for it

LOL. The only difference that I know of between ls1 and ls6 is the crankcase breather passages. Might help for a high rpm build.

I cant stand Mencia, damn unoriginal joke stealer.

Charles if its a good price then go for it, lighter weight then a 6.0 and close to the same power output.

first off, im hung like a ******* moose, secondly i think ima go for it since its a good deal and i can pick it up, and thirdly, since it puts out around the same power as a 6.0 i dont see why i shouldnt do it, fourthly, please leave the "dick" out of my thread, im a man that loves women so you know, try to talk about some poonie instead of dick
