You have $10,000 to spend on a longblock... Who do you have build it??...and it is going into a 2001 Corvette for road racing only.
What displacement, heads, internals, etc.
402 LS2 stroker ???
And, no charge for install, I will do it myself.

call around and see what people will do for ya. do you want to go FI or or N/A. either way I would reccomend one of the sponsors on the right as most of them specialize in ls1 or ls2's.

Road racing engine for 10k? I would go with a 402 LS2 with a nice heads and cam setup. You could get it done for 10k or less since you're installing it yourself. There are so many good brands of heads out there. If I had to chose I would go with either ET performance or AFR's. I can't tell you what cam to go with because I'm not sure on your final setup. But since you are roadracing the car I would guess something that makes great power throughout the rev range (duh right?) I would look into A&A corvette if I was in your shoes.

I had the equipment I'd buy all the pieces and assemble it myself so I could make sure that all my clearances are as I want them to be. I'd build the largest possible ls1 with an aluminum block 402 or bigger depending on what is out there (haven't looked as I could only dream of building such an engine). get the best flowing heads I could find and a nice size cam to match it.

Why not have your engine built by the same professionals who build the C6.R, CTS-V.R and GTO.R engines? I'm proud to say we sponsor the board now, so give us a call.
