Picked up LS6 Chevelle
 
14 Attachment(s)
Ever since I was 14 I’ve owned 70 Chevelle’s. I recently stumbled onto a Cortez Silver 70 LS6 4.10 Automatic Car. I have the Canadian Docs from George. None of its original driveline was with the Chevelle but since I’ve bought it I’ve found a proper CRR LS6 engine minus the carb and smog that was assembled 8 days before my car was built, and also a complete CRW rear diff built 0216 B2 including the control arms and rear Swaybar. I still need to find a CY 400 turbo, automatic carb, and smog setup dated before March 1970. I hope to have it completed by its 50th 👍🏻I know I’ll have a few people say it’s not a LS6 anymore cause the original driveline is gone. Bite me!! 😂 I’m trying to upload more photos but they say they are too big.

Bout time you join! ;) Steve is one of the good guys and very knowledgeable as well. However...…….you have to be one of the luckiest guys I know based on all your recent finds. Good luck on the CY trans.

Is the CY transmission special for the LS6 or is it just a '70 TH400? I've seen a few '70 TH400s for sale lately and I wondered if one of them might work for you.

Thanks guys!! How do you shrink picture sizes on a iPhone? Lol

It’s probably not the easiest... but I email them to myself and, before sending, my phone asks what size attachment I want to send. I choose the smallest or second smallest attachment size. Simple way for me to resize photos on my phone.

Worked perfect 👍🏻

Steve, Send me what you want posted and I can reduce them and post them. I have (or had) several so if you want my help just resend to me what you want posted. I think I owe you a favor anyway...……. ;)

From what I’ve read it’s only 70 LS6 in 1970 and has a 6 lug converter.

If the donkey were bringing them they would be here by now. No, but I traced them and they are supposed to show up tomorrow so we are good.

It’ll be really nice once I put your door edge guards on Rick! They are in my mailbox in Niagara Falls :headbang:
