Default LT4 Engine pics

I personally have never seen an LT1 or LT4 outside of the car to see how the opti and waterpump are positioned. We L98 owners do not have to worry about our distrubutor. Saw this at the NCM today and thought someone might appreciate the pics:


Heck, they even had another one there too:

Thanks for the pics. As a C5/LS1 guy, I was never quite comprehending the problem with the water pump and the opti spark. It is now clear.

I am going to go out on a limb and say the LT-1 and LT-4 are the visually the best looking Chevy motor made to date. The LSx motors are ugly and are cluttered with wires while the LT-X motors are pretty clean looking... and what is the difference between the black widdow LT-5 and a standard one. Is it more power or just that it is more rare.
