LS7 crank with LS1 reluctor wheel? i beleive i saw a post here about a member here that pressed a LS1
reluctor wheel to his LS7 crate engine stock crankshaft and

What about the longer snout on the LS7 crank? Doesn't that cause a problem on an engine without the dry sump setup?
Also, since the bobweights for the LS7 are setup for the lightweight titanium rods, will you have to add mallory metal to balance with regular rods and pistons?

What are you going to do with the LS7 reluctor wheel ? We are waiting on one from GM for a project. We do have new LS1 reluctor wheels in stock if you need one.
Does anyone know for sure that the Goodson tool also works on the LS7 reluctor wheel ?
