The Best Engine For The Crew ?

Post by killian96ss »

How would the Crew behave with this? I think it would be fun. :D :drool: If the LS1 swap is possible then this certainly would be also. Too bad the engine costs more that the Crew. :lol:

You could also snap cvs and axles at will :lol:

Not to mention tires. Keeping tires on a CC with that engine would be a problem. :lol:

How about a Crew with the LS7, SFA, 4L80E, and 35's. I can totally picture it! :shock: 8)

The LS7 is a 428 cubic inch small block similar to the LS1 and LS2. :wink:

Maybe you were thinking LS6 454 big block from back in the 70's? Also a very nice engine. :D

I remember an article in chevy hi performance a long time ago that had a regular S-10 that Lingenfelter had put a twin-turbo 427 in it :shock: It's intercooler was so big that they had to put the radiator in the bed, and I believe they put a Denali AWD system and 4L80E in it. Ran something like 2.8 seconds to 60 and 10 something in the quarter....on street tires :schwing:

However, they did have problems keeping the trans together...they said that all the fluid would go to the back of the case during the launch and burn up the bands... 8)
