A friend of mine has one with an LS6 out of a 70 Chevelle on it currently. What do you need to know? I will be there Monday or Tuesday and can take some pics if you would like.

I've built a few of them for people. I usually make it adjustable for different engine mounts.... I made one with gas tank, radiator and everything so you can swap out engines in a matter of minutes (of nearly any type). Its very easy to start them up, do break ins etc on it.
