Quoted: personally I like the 70 much better than the 71 the single headlights just don't look right to me.
Was it an original LS6 car?
That is way too much rearend gear for a richmond gear box some of those richmonds have a stump pulling 4.00 first gear
If you could get any type of traction without breaking the rear end that car should be faster than 12's.

When we had it on the freeway it was tacking about 2600 rpm at 65 mph in 6th gear, not too bad actually. The first gear is in the 3's the guy said, I'm not sure what it is exactly though.

The richmond 6 speed has a overdrive so thats not going to be your problem, I was concerned with the low first gear along with the 4:11 rear end.
Think about it originally they would put the close ratio M-21 or M-22 with 4:11 gears that had a 2.20 first gear and even with that and BBC torque you could barely plant the bitch.
Now amagine 4:11 with a mid 3 first in a big block el camino with not too much weight over the rear tires???
You wont be able to hook up in first at all,
But hey thats always fun for those mile long burnouts
Just makes em a bitch to race.
