Default 1991 ZR1 LT5 Rebuild By Dasilva Motorsports

Here is a little video of the 1991 ZR1 LT5 , Dasilva Motorsports just rebuilt .

New Stainless works headers and some new Bilsteins .

Motor out


Out and ready for overhaul


A few mice had found their way under the intake manifold where the starter is . New wires have since been installed as the mice made a snack of the the old ones .


Breaking dow the LT5








All back together and good as new , some engine paint to spruce it up too .
This is why Dasilva Motorsports is your choice , its the attention to details no matter how small .


The first fire of the newly rebuilt LT5
Another fine work of art from the crew at Dasilva Motorsports .

The starter is 'in' the engine under the intake?? Genius!!

Nice job guys, hope I never have to replace a starter on a LT5....

LT5 is still one of the sexiest engines out there. GM got it right with the C4 clamshell hood and that LT5.

Great job on the rebuild, boys.

The rides I have had in 415 LT5's still beats the stroker LSx stuff. Still is one bad stroker engine to this day making 595 rwhp without a power adder.....The exhaust note at 7600 is like no other!
