There is nothing like a chevy v8 pushrod motor.

My next vehicle will be a C6 vette either an LS2 or LS3 motor with a big cam, L92 heads, long tube headers and badass exhaust ...it will literally scare people

I have some bare CNC'd l92/ls3 castings I'm getting rid of...

In before the said engine seizes up due to malfunctioning of electronics adjusting the lubrication  :D

And before the guys who have swallowed an iron bar for breakfast arrive again; just joking.

I think there's no hetero-sexual man whose dick wouldn't wake up from seeing/hearing/feeling V8.

How long have they been used?

Freshly CNC machined ports and hand finished, but they're BARE castings. No seats, no valves, no springs, just the heads and guides.

The CNC program went like 355 CFM @ .650 lift on a 4.00 bore, and 370 on a 4.125 bore.

I'll do some research and get back to you.

In a hurry to sell?

99% brand spanking new, only carries over a scant few parts from the Gen4. It's a touch heavier but still a very vertically short engine.

I'm interested to see what other displacements they use, if any.

Looking at the animation, aside from the direct injection, nothing really new or groundbreaking going on. It'll be another great small block I'm sure.

Awesome that they set up the direct injection with removable injectors... I had heard that some injectors are built into the head and are not changeable, which would have sucked for hobbyists.... But it looks like you can remove these and change them. Good news. Everything else is built upon the Gen 3/4 it looks like, stuff looks 99% the same.

A little more in depth.
