Me too. One things for sure, Robert had proved that an LS Fox is a tough combo to beat. Hate to be a copy cat but hey if it works......

Wonder what the comp ratio is on that shortblock, thats a pretty damn good deal.

05Saleen 02-22-2012 06:19 PM

That sucks! Sorry to hear.

bababuschka 02-22-2012 09:32 PM

Atleast it sounds like you won't be down for too long, congrats on keeping your sanity and pushing forward with the 4 eye:bigthumb:

Harry 02-22-2012 10:19 PM

Sorry to hear Ford motors keep rejecting you. :joke: That really sucks. Sorta like my trans issues. Keep pushing forward. Maybe the chevy motors will welcome you with open arms.

Lol, I hear you. So far the Chevy guys themselves are rolling out the red carpet, hopefully the motors will do the same.

damn shawn, i really hate to hear about that... ive got a line on a tsp 224r cam (224/224 .581/.581 112lsa) with ls6 or comp 918 springs and tsp hardened pushrods for super cheap if you are interested... im supposed to be picking it up this weekend, but i am leaning more towards a 114 lsa for my truck... it would be perfect for what you are wanting to do... i wish i was still there to help, i'd be over in a hearbeat doing all i could... best of luck to you on getting it sorted out!

Thanks Aaron. I'll keep the cam in mind. I know almost nothing about these LS motors. I think I about to start learning tho.

Chillerman 02-22-2012 11:14 PM

Shawn, Sorry your motor took a dump. It sounds like you have a plan put together. I can't help you with any chevy stuff. I was really looking forward to seeing your can run this year.

yota 02-22-2012 11:15 PM

grab a bible, i'm pretty sure God speaks about them somewhere in there...

When you have time, I would like to know the cause of failure when you figure it out.

LadyInRed 02-23-2012 11:11 AM

When I heard, I did not believe.... That just sucks.

Hope everything comes together without issue going the LS direction.

Have no fear. You're SMMS! haha You always seem to like a challenge and putting it together will be fun. Plus, you like the street roll stuff and a turbo LS package will be a serious beast. The auto trans will make it more consistent and better for when you take it to the track.

Best of luck. :bigthumb:

Carlrx7 02-23-2012 12:03 PM

This really sucks. Sorry for the loss of that motor. If you want a turbo v6, I know someone selling the v6 out of their supercoupe. :hide:

Thanks Larry. I do like a challenge I suppose. I guess I'm not happy unless I'm working on something and I have me work cut out for me here.
