LSX Crate engines
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It's always exciting to see new toys arrive at Jeff's shop and yesterday was no exception. 5 brand new GM LS1 crate engines and a LS2 Blower, intercooler / manifold set-up for Cadillac XLR-V arrived at the shop. I'm getting numb from always being around a dozen or so Killer LS motors, while working on my Miata, it keeps giving me some really nutty ideas, like making me actually consider nitrous, turbos , etc. on my roadracing machine!!!
Within 20 minutes and 8 received phone calls, 3 of 5 engines were gone, poof ! Today's another day with 10 more coming. These motors are brand new, crate 2004 GTO LS1s, really sweet. It amazes me how popular these motors really are ( I suspect Ford's new aluminum mod motors probably are too in particular Mustang circles)
Got my own wiring harness, PCM and MAF yesterday too and helped Jeff wire and fire up a guys new $70,000 LS1 Sandrail. Whew, standing two feet away when those jet-coated header's 4 inch outlets come to life!! I'm finally starting to get excited about the possibility of hearing my own LS2 Miata fire up for the first time.
My own dang car's not even finished yet and I'm running a tape measure to see if I could actually fit the Cadillac's XLR-V blower set-up under my stock Miata hood, I must be truly SICK!!
