Default crate 402, 408

Hey guys i am a really big Newb, coming from import cars like my past Wrx and s2000 i am looking to buy a Cts-v mainly because of the spacious interior and the ls motor. On to the point.

I would like to know where you guys would buy you crate 402 and 408 motors. I have read a lot about the supercharger mainly the pro charger because i have been a ls1tech lurker for about a month now. Not really liking the supercharge price and power (not bashing at all looks like a great setup) i would just like advice on where to find my crate engines. thank you very much

Katech. They build the motors for the World Challenge CTS-VRs and C6-Rs.

here ya go buddy, scroll through the pages....they got different prices and different setups....remember none of these packages are set in stone. You can get in contact with the builder of the specific crate you want, and add or remove components and change them at your will.

Futral Motorsports builds fine LS motors at reasonable prices. I'd give them a call.
