The blocks are very close to getting out so we will see what they look like for real very soon.

Are we saying that the LS7 blocks are LS2 blocks with a cheap liner, the C5R block is expensive and hard to get, and this block is strong, modest in cost, and supports a longer stroke than either?

That's the way it's looking David. Not to mention, the WP block offers several added features that the GM offerings do not have (such as priority oilling and 6 bolts/cylinder sealing).

Hopefully we'll see some real world testing being done in the next month or two.

cant wait to see some number that people are making on these blocks and heads! i think this could be the start of some very intresting things for the LSX motors!

i really cant weight to see these blocks and heads used in proper turnkey engines! i think they are going to tear up the SBC world! and for the better to!

thanks CHris.

This block, and the heads that go along with it, is going to rock the LS world!... Book it!

Will this motor fit into a C5 or C6 also? Will a lifted hood be needed with the additional deck height?

It's looking like a better deal by the minute.

GM Parts direct finally has the bare LS7 block listed, and it's almost $4K by checkout (with $680 for S&H )

So the LS7 block is available? If it is that much (which really sucks) they really missed a good oppertunity. Oh well, good for the world products.

So, The Warhawk is looking better and better with insane GM pricing. I've been itching to start on a decent stroker project. Hope to see some numbers from some Warhawk builds soon.





Looks like GM is Fooking up good a good opportunity again. Wonder what that price is if you have a friend in the parts dept?

Anybody want to PM me a reasonable price..please do.


Thanks

how much would u be looking at for a long block with wp heads? would u be able to run these long deck engines off of pump gas?

racer7088

Of course you could run them off of pump gas if you design them for that if that's what you mean? The cost of one of these will be similar to a longblock with the C5R stuff but around 2000.00 cheaper. It will totally depend on the parts you want in that shortblock.

Can anyone tell me if LSx gen engines are any taller than LT1's (from the crank centerline to the top of the block, intake mounting surface)?
Thanks

for that price i would take the warhawk Block over the LS7 block.
