Please don't knock a motor till you know something about it. Sure, he could get LS1 jump on the band wagon and be trendy or he could break the mold and be someone. I'd go with break the mold and be someone but thats why I have a blown V-6 in my monte. I dunno, just venting to those who don't know shit about the L36.
How would he brake the mold if hes doing something you told us other people have already done. Show me a v6 like you are talking about that can keep up with an ls1 and I'll show you someone who can't drive an ls1. LS1's have hit low 13's/high 12's bone stock.

Why spend all the money to swap in a l67 motor when he could do it cheaper with a ls1 and have so much more potential it's not even funny.
