OR...

I could buy a stock C5 and we can make an even swap.

Seriously, might take you up on that in the future.

I think the reliability is very good for a H/C/I C5 IMO. I believe the only issue I have is the stock clutch isn't worth diddly after I went over 400 RWHP but,that was bound to happen sooner or later.

it really wouldn't be a bad idea to have a ls1/ls6 dyno thread sticky. people could post combos and dyno sheets. it sure would be a handy reference for an engine build.

anyone ever discuss this?
