Is this LS6 the real deal?

I would appreciate any and all direct, candid and brutally honest feedback on this car on ebay if you are familiar with it, the seller, or the owner. Thanks

The paperwork seems to back it up but I am no expert.
It is a beautiful car but it has the famous upside down/inverted cowl induction hood seal [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] .

I would like to see the Engine Stamping with no Paint on it. I don't see any type of Smog and the SS Center Caps appear to be the shallow Replacement ones. Neat Options and Paperwork.

I KNOW OF 2 DOCUMENTED BLACK LS6 CARS THAT ARE JUST SITTING AND NOT BEING FINISHED, WHAT A SHAME, THE END RESULT LOOKS KILLER! KP

Take a look at the rear stripes,it is hard to tell by the picture,but they look too close together,also,the drivers side of the hood seems to stick up quite a bit.

Yep, a black on black LS-6 Chevelle is a killer combo. In fact, there's one that runs at the Pure Stock event every year...I think high 12s or low 13s? Anyway, this car REALLY put on quite a show this year! It did a 360 at about the 1/8 mile mark, which means it was probably doing 80mph or better!

The needles on the dash guages seem to be too red to be original. If i'm not mistaken, they should be more orange.

I agree with you skierkaj....dash looks like repro. I believe you can call GM of canada and get documentation on the car. Alot of Canada cars with no US Build sheets lately.

I would also make sure what the seller is claiming.
such as: This is the original block with vin code stamped on it? Those are the original heads, intake, carb, factory dash, etc.

3.31's with a 4spd? how many people ordered that combo?

"Take a look at the rear stripes,it is hard to tell by the picture,but they look too close together"

I agree
