Re: 6 liter vortec

I vote "no" on the carb conversion. The performance parts designed for the LS series engines are designed for fuel injection. It will be far easier to diagnose problems with the engine as well. IMO

EDIT: I just seen the '95 part......what 6 liter in '95?

deffinately not an ls2 if it came out of a 95. The ls2 didn't come out until 2005.

Its an LQ4 engine. Iron block, aluminum heads, 325 hp, 370 ft-lbs.


I think thats pretty much the same engine Curtis has in his car? Anyone know for sure? I think I remember him saying he has an LQ9 which is the high output version.

You could get your numbers off the block and try here to see what engine it is.
