--------Is Hooper correct when he makes the statement that LS6s were internally balanced??? I cant remember seeing any LS6s that were internally balanced except in racing circumstances with heavy metal slugs..........Bill S

I was just posting info from his book that seemed in line with this thread. I do not know John Hooper or anything about an internally balanced LS6.

IMO, I don't think there were any LS6 Camaro built.

Anyone can interpret documentation and come up with a theory that a few cars MIGHT exist but in this case I highly doubt it. I have never seen or heard of any LS-6 Camaros. Factory built that is.

It's a shame really because that thing would have been nasty.

Doesn't mean you can't build one. hmmmmm. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

I think it's a typo in the book, Bill. Should say "were not internally balanced"

The Yunick 500001 Camaro is Supposed to be one of the LS6 Mules that were built.
The LS6 engine from the car was supposedly found under the bench. Hopefully the
car is being restored correctly; It has a lot of impossible to replace parts on it. This
is all second hand info but you never know https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

Bruce which one is it? There are two First Built 1970 500001 Camaro’s, Norwood and LA, The LA. car was sold
on eBay last year. The car is a Plain Jane Camaro and was in pretty Bad Shape.

Does the ad have Elvis driving the car?? That would clear up a couple of sightings.
