Now this maybe a cheaper and more powerful alternative to an LS7... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:


Hey folks, as most of you know I am a large displacement fanatic (yes, a nut). We now have a dry sleeve LS2 available that will enable us to reach 471 cubic inches! :eek: .

This engine with a set of ET 265 11 degree heads should be an unbeatable axle breaking, torque tube twisting, clutch shreading package. And the best part is that there will not be much of a cost adder over our 441CI LS2.

I'll have more info as the first one goes together.

Mike :)

so they haven't actually made it yet?
It sounds like a promising engine but how much cylinder wall is left at that point?

Mike is putting it together as you read this... his 441ci LS2 is a 600bhp+ firebreathing insane monster ;)

This 471ci is gonna top than.. :)

By cheaper, you mean capital cost right? Surely that will have a much larger fuel cost :P

I'm not one who cares about fuel economy, though. As long as that engine is loud as shit and breaks dynos I'm interested :twisted:

Actually most of the big cubic inch C5 Vettes still get 25mpg+ in 6th.
