Well 27 months later I finally got the engine back from the machine shop. I had been distracted with other projects and work but I finally was able to push them to knock it out. It was line honed, decked (#s on pad were saved) bored .30 over, crank turned .10 under, scat rods, forged 9.5 to 1 JE pistons, balanced with flywheel and flex plate to run manual or auto, LS6 291 heads were redone but with the correct gasket can run the original LS5 280 heads, Comp Cam and double roller chain........ It's ready for final assembly but probably won't get to that until spring. One of the other projects I've been distracted with is the 2017 Chevy SS Sedan (AKA Holden Commodore SSV) with LS3 and T6060 manual trans. Last winter I added an LSA supercharger with a few extras and its putting down 663 rear wheel HP. It has way more power than traction at this point. Tempting to put a blown LS in the Monte but for now it's back to big block basics. Here is a link to the SS build.https://www.ssforums.com/forum/ss-owner-build-journals/170314-ss-m6-lsa-aka-cts-v-conversion.html

I hope you are not proud of that comment rob

If I was a customer at that store I would be “Out of my Tree!”

I have an original stock ‘71 with a Muncie, no console and it has a white shifter with pattern.
