GM LS engine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
LS1
GM LS1 engine from the Chevrolet CamaroThe LS1 shares little other than similar displacement, external dimensions, and rod bearings, with the earlier small-block V8 engines. It is an all-aluminum 5.7 L (346 in³) pushrod engine and was rated between 288 - 345 hp (212 to 257 kW) and 325-350 ft·lbf (439-475 N·m) of torque in North America, depending on the application. However, regardless of application, the LS1s used in vehicles would usually produce an actual 345 hp (257 kW) measured at the flywheel. In Australia, continuous modifications were made to the LS1 engine throughout its lifetime, reaching 382 hp (285 kW) in the HSV's YII series. The version fitted to the Pontiac GTO featured a higher-lift camshaft to produce 350 hp (261 kW) and 365 ft·lbf (494 Nm) of torque. Beginning in 2001, the LS1 received the higher-flowing intake, from the LS6, and a smaller camshaft to keep power at the same level; this also allowed GM to remove the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. The block is very similar to that of the higher-output LS6; beginning in 2002, some LS1 engines were actually built using the LS6 block instead. The LS1 was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 1998.
