Re: 1971 Chevrolet Super BB w/ LS6 in it

Quote:
The only question I would have is were there LS6, 454 engines in the Freemont plant for installation into another vehicle. If yes, then I'd say it is possible that that truck came with a 454 (looks like a 402 on a quick inspection). If no 454s were in that plant for other reasons then I'd say NO, somebody put it in there after delivery of the truck.

They were there for use in the Chevelle line (including El Caminos). Not sure what other models where made there but they did have LS5 and LS6 engines there in 1971.
