L92/l76

i see these codes getting thrown around alot recently...

but i'm not aware of what vehicles they coincide with?

is it the LS2 parts??

tried searching but it is flooded with posts just refering to the codes...not what they are or where they came from.

thanks

i set of heads identical to the ones on the ls7 complete for under $1000, and a 90mm intake with 90mm tb for $500

where were these things a year ago!?!

sounds like the L92 is the heads from the new ls7

and the L76 is the intake that fits them??

the heads are cast off the ls7 heads for the escalade, and the intake has a slight variance from the escalade intake because of hood clearance issues with the cars. its a nice article with part numbers, do a search for l76/l92 on google

edit- question is now, do they bolt right up to a ls1 block?

The L92 stuff is the new heads from the new 6.2L trucks. They flow a max of 330 cfm and make ridiculous power for ridiculously cheap (less than $1000 a pair assembled.. Around $3xx a piece bare)

They only fit on the 4.00" or larger bore stuff like the LS2 or LS7 or a resleeved LS1.

The L76 intake is the intake manifold that fits them for high performance use and comes with the fuel rails, throttle body, and injectors for around $500.

More racecar-orientated factory parts from GM. It started with the LS1 and has progressed to this

so i guess the next question is, do they make a rotating assembly to fit up to a resleeved 4.00" ls1? i need the engine work done anyway.

Of course they do, but it's gonna be $$$$$ to wet-sleeve that block. The sleeves themselves are over $1000, plus the machining to the block and installation.

They make 4.00" sleeves - 4.125" sleeves up to 4.160" sleeved stuff.

Ever hear of a 440+ cube LS1?

Anybody have anythoughts about grabbing an LQ4 iron block, slapping these heads on it and running the carbed intake?

I'm thinking that would make a pretty nasty 3rd gen.

L92 is the 6.2 Escalade (large bore) truck engine. The L92 heads are similar, but not identical to LS7 heads, as pointed out. They are a great addition to the LS family, especially at the price point.

The L76 engine is used in Australia, with "L92" heads and the "folded hands" car intake. It should see the US in the Pontiac G8 just previewed a week or two ago.
