LS SERIES BLOCKS
GM took a chance with the LS engine. They stayed true to the
pushrod small-block and continued to push the technology to
the point that building a daily-driven, 500-plus horsepower car is
no big deal. The GM Performance Parts LS Series cylinder blocks
are designed specifically for late model small-block engines that
run the LS Family cylinder heads. These include the LS1, LS2,
LS4, LS6, LS7, LQ4, LQ9, and L76. Our LS block selection
ranges from a stock replacement all the way up to our C5R
racing block designed to support over 900 horsepower!
