I'm sure he means the 1965 327-365 HP Corvettes. For awhile they held the very cool distinction of being the only solid-lifter engine that was available with Air Conditioning. A very cool combination, pun very much intended. They decided to offer A/C one more time with the 1972 solid lifter LT-1's.

Mark, Not to hijack the thread, but the Vette 365hp with AC was also avail in '64. Very very rare. I worked on this original driveline car for the owner. Note the size of the compressor pulley!



Saddle Tan/Saddle, hard top only, originally delivered to Hawaii. A VERY nice original car.

Honestly guys,i just went through all 7 pages of this thread and i still dont believe there was a factory 1971 LS6 car delivered.
if the day ever comes up that a 1971 has a factory build sheet/protecto plate and original window sticker that states the car was ordered with the LS6,then i will believe it,for now this is all hear say and kinda of a waste of time,dont you think?

Who else wants to join our bandwagon?

By the way, Verne, that's a sweet-lookin' Vette you posted there!

We had two early 70s high dollar ski boats in the area, (Nautique?)that came with CRR coded LS-6 engines complete with 11.00-1 compression and the correct low intake. I can not remember the block casting # or carb # as he runs a machine shop and he rebuilt both motors in the 90s and he lowered the compression and redid the seats for low grade fuel available at marinas.

[/ QUOTE ]Not really a waste of time.Threads like this may jog a memory and uncover something. I am going to try to locate the guy that owned the 71 that I remember.

Is there a difference in the factory motor mounts ? Are the LS6 mounts different?
