Generation IV Internal Engine - who tp get an ls3 from

im looking around for a 418/416 ls3 i have been mainly looking at companies, 1st question is has anyone gotten a motor from hinson super cars? their short blocks sounds good but i cant get any info about them, then lme i know a few people have had issues with them but many have had great luck with them so my other question is who would you recomend, and sorry if this is iin the wrong place thanks

Good luck dealing with henson...

Livernois, SDPC, texas speed, lots of sponsors with great built motors!

Hinson gave me good coustomer service when I ordered parts. But idk about getting a motor.

Texas Speed has done good work with motors from what I've heard.

Good luck with your find

Here are some photos of an LS3 stroker build we did recently.

I'd knock the surface rust off the top of those pistons. :lol:

LOL, it sort of does look like rust, huh? It's actually a coating.

The thermal barrier crown coating is applied to the top of the piston and is designed to reflect heat into the combustion chamber, thereby increasing exhaust gas velocity and greatly improving scavenging potential. It can also assist in extending piston life by decreasing the rate of thermal transfer.

The skirts are also coated with a lubricating, anti-friction / anti-wear coating
