For the LS enthusiasts (and other interested parties), added a head/cams package to my LS6 along with a speed density tune:

Am interested, nothing to add except just a note of thanks for posting it up!

BTW, Stalker #85? That can't be only 85 Stalkers?

Shane, thanks for posting. Nice dyno run.

Question on your cooling system. It looks like you retained the custom C&R radiator when you swapped in the LS motor. Is there still sufficient cooling for street use? If so, what are the basic specs/dimensions of the radiator?

Hey, cheapracer,

Enjoying your posts of the USA7's forum. #85 simply represents the chassis number of my car. It was the 85th Stalker (kit) to be produced by Dennis Brunton back when he owned Brunton Automotive. :-D

Tom,

Thanks. And yes, the C&R was retained and does an adequate job cooling the LS6. In fact, the engine actually seems to run a bit cooler now that the mods have been performed. :rofl: FWIW, I updated my build file with some dimension/misc radiator photos. Here's the link:

Shane, many thanks for adding the detailed pics and dimensions. You have a really nice and well documented build. Much appreciated.
