When it rains it pours. Just as we reported the transplant of an LS9 engine by Hennessey, along comes details of Camaro5 member’s (camaro1) swap of his factory engine with a LS3 415ci stroker engine! The LS3 415ci stroker is rated at 600hp / 540 ft-lb tq. Here are some stats on this engine:
Type: 6.2L V8

The install took just short of 8 hours and runs well enough for camaro1 to drive 30 miles home. Next up is the fun part — tuning this monster engine. Stay tuned to the THREAD for updates!
