and it looks awesome.. I didn't think any of them existed still in the crates... I thought these engines were pretty rare... anyone got any tech data on these things?

now if only I could afford it =(

Re: An LT5

Off the top of my head...

LT5 5.7Lt V8 Quad Cam 32 Valve multistage induction 405 HP. The LT5 has an incredible 11 throttle plates!!! And to amaze you even more it came equipped with 16 injectors. You can turn off 8 of the 16 fuel injectors with a "valet key" and reduce the cars power. I believe it was cut down to about 225hp
What more do you want? Gotta Luv those ZR-1s

Power ranged from 375 to 405 bhp and they rev to about 7500rpm or so. You'll also need a ZF 6 speed tranny if you're gonna buy that bad boy.
