Hey all I'm looking for a suitable bare block to build. Let me know what ls1 and ls2 blocks you have. Will consider short blocks as well.

thanks guys.... the lq9 would be too heavy for my plans and the lt1 isn't going to work with all the accessories that I have. I need an lsx based alu block really.

LQ9 is only about 70lbs heavier. But its your car so your choice.

Yeah but it's for my rx7 and it's forte is handling... so I would like to keep that in check and as close as possible to the original 50/50 distribution. Not going for big power really so the iron block and extra displacement isn't such a benefit.
