LS2 = 6.0L V8

LS7 = 6.4L V8

Pretty much what alot of people expected them to be.

A 6.0 would be 36x cubic inches and the 6.4 is, what 380? 390? Those numbers aren't surprising.

I want to see what the heck this TURBO V12 is going into!

6.4 is quite possibly 396. Very cool.

427 would be even cooler, but hey . . .

Did you notice there is a LS4!! it is 5.3L, for the new Monte RWD maybe.

a LS1 382 stroker is 6.3L
a LS1 396 stroker is 6.5 or 6.6L?
so the 6.4L LS7 should be about 387?

conversion factor L to c.i.

To convert into x = multiply; / = divide
cubic inches litres x 0.01639

so 6.0L = 366 c.i.
6.4L = 390.5 c.i.
5.3L = 323.4 c.i.
5.7L = 347.8 c.i.

Wow, that is good stuff. There is a lot of motors we haven't even seen yet in that list. I'm pretty excited.

Well, this pretty much confirms that Corvette mule info that had "LS2 engine info" on a chart on the dash of the car from what? 4-6 months ago...??

Looks like the info kings have been churning out good/accurate information over the past 6 months. Nice job guys! Who was that that posted about that Corvette they saw with the computer testing equipment in it?
