I dont see the logic in fitting a 6 into an 8 ... First up I think it destroys the integrity of the vehicle ... 2nd up LS1's must be a dime a dozen in the US and cheap to purchase... In fact its probably the best place to be to convert a 6 to an 8 even . This is where I say blasphemy ! to commit...

Seems like Holden didnt do well in the headlight manufacturing dept ... Im surprised that VF model owners are having issues I would of thought they sorted it after the VT /VX ...
