Default Anybody have exact dimensions of LS1 block & heads

Looking for shortblock length, deck angle, valley cover width, height of the short block, etc. Basically everything needed to describe the general size and shape of the block.

I'd measure a block myself if I had one layout out of the car.

Vents, I wish! There's a guy in town that has at least a shortblock laying around so I may check his.

BadBlueBuggy, thanks dude. I'm trying to model one of these engines in 3dsmax for a project of mine. This stuff will be useful in making it more of an accurate model.
