LT-2, and LT-3
Why wasnt there an LT-2 and a LT-3,,, or was there.
It just makes no sense that GM went from LT-1 to LT-4 and LT-5.........
This should get some talk going on here,,, been pretty boring lately

Re: LT-2, and LT-3 (1990CORVETTE)
My guess is the designers at GM can't count very well.
1 ugh, 4 umm, what next? Oh 5! :crazy:
They also went from LS-1 to LS-6. It boggles the mind, doesn't it? :confused:

The LT-1 name was brought back from an optional engine RPO from the 70's
LT-2 and 3 probably didn't sound cool enough.
Also, the LT-5 came before the LT-4. Go figure! :crazy:

The LT2 is a truck engine. remember GM's RPO codes are for more than just the Corvette

LT-5 came before LT-4. But they made LT-1 over 30 years ago. And came back in 1992 with a LT_1. That came after the LT-5. :leaving: I need another cup of coffee :confused:

Let's see, down here #2 is Rusty Wallace and he doesn't drive Chevys and they retired #3, so it makes sence to go from LT1 to LT4. Coffee,! it's time for a beer :leaving:

Re: LT-2, and LT-3 (c4cruiser)
I had a 70 coupe with an LS-5 motor 390HP 454. Great torque monster motor. There was also an LS-6 454 that went into 70 Chevelle SS cars.
