New heartbeat for the Monte..... LS2

[Samckitt]

Took a trip to Noblesville, IN last week & met up with Travis (DaytonayellaZ) and came back with a new heart for the Monte. Originally it was going to be a 6.2L L92, but instead came back with a 6.0L LS2 from a Trailblazer SS. Now the fun begins.

Thats awesome Scot..

Good job Scot! What did you decide on for a tranny?

[Samckitt]

Ron - When I get some more $$ saved I will order the T56 Magnum that we spoke about. Haven't decided 100% on the gear ratio, leaning towards the close ratio one.

Congrats man! the LS2 even bone-stock rocks!
I traded my truck for my son's 2005 GTO for the week, I'm looking forward
to driving somewhere for lunch...

Ron.... You drank the Kool Aid... LOL...
Awesome man, let us know how it all turns out!

That's awesome Scot. Good choice on the Tranny! Just make sure the guy taking the order knows CR means 'close ratio'...haha :)
