    I’m not a ford or mopar guy. I’m a Chevy guy but whenever I see videos of people modifying ford blocks to run ls heads or full custom jobs making ls heads work for a six cylinder I absolutely am intrigued and wanna watch and see if it goes successfully and I also hope it does work successfully. I absolutely love these oddball, mixing of different automakers parts. I’m absolutely fascinated by it and will support you all the way through.

      Not much to putting a LS head on a SBF or a 300 6 seeing the LS is basically a windsor and a Cleveland head mixed together.

      I've seen them - they're impressive enough, - I have machined and built several inline four cylinder snowmobile engines over 1000CCs from two and three cylinder snowmobile engines - but the type of work required to develop both vertically and horizontally sectioned cylinder heads was just "magic" to watch, especially at that time (early '70s)
