Ok so the past few mins I have been just surfin the web and came across used motors for the v6 camaro. I was thinking about buying it and building one in my spare time. BUT....... I cant even find a cooler thermostat for this motor.... question is are there parts out there for the internals of these motors yet far as bottom end? I do know about the project with the cams going on but what about the rest of the motor? Can I bore it and stroke it any? Bigger valves? Better chain than this bike chain thats in it now?

You can make it a 4 liter, but there are currently no bottom end parts available pistons, crank, ect. The Cams just came out and the valve springs have been available for a while. I have been told that the pistons from the LNF will work in the LLT but thats just hear say. I strongly request that you be the first to fully do this motor up so that the parts are/can be available on the market for the feature. With my looming FI project I have fears of blowing my motor.

I have thought about buying one to put in my Chevy Tracker. Keep us updated on your project.
