Came across this block in some reading about the LSX motors chevy has put out, and that some of the dirt track people are trying to build solid LS7 type motors for late models. This block is basically your standard Small Block 400, built to take LSx heads.
For those that don't know, the difference in design between LS and SB heads basically allows for a lot higher and smoother airflow and combustion on the LS heads. I'm working on a spec motor just out of curiosity to see how much one would cost. Estimate roughly 575-600hp at 10:1 compression. http://www.superchevy.com/technical/engine...gine/index.html Block uses mostly stock components: Stock SB Crank Stock SB Rods Stock LS Pistons Stock LS Heads/Rockers Slightly modified LS Lifters Custom Pushrods SB Blank Cam with LS angle grind (Comp Cams) Wet/Dry Sump oiling Stock SB Pan Stock LS Intake/Exhaust manifolds Stock SB or LS Accessories. -------------------- 1978 Mustang II King Cobra
89 5.0HO, Stock Short Block, Ford F303 cam, 1.7:1 Crane Roller Rockers, Holley 650 Doubler Pumper, MSD 6AL, Pocket Ported stock heads, Hedman Long Tube Headers 5 spd Manual Full roll cage, 9" full floater w/Currie trac lock/373 gears, RCI Fuel Cell Project Page: http://www.brandttuning.com/projects.htm |
