Default Lsx376

I did a search and didn't see anything concerning the LSX376 crate motor on the C4 forum. Just wondering could this motor go into a late C4. I have seen the LS1 placed into a couple? I wonder what would the labor cost?
Thanks

Would be a fun build for sure. Definitely would be a cool engine with a nicely sized turbo plumbed up to it. But you do that and the engine becomes the strongest link and the rest of the car wrapped around it becomes the problem.

Swap is no diff than any ls3 swap and most gen3 swap info will also apply. The application is geared towards carbs and/or blowers but could also work as an iron block ls3 and a lot of boost.

Amazing numbers for a motor with low compression and a teeny cam.

Would take a stroker Gen 1 with H/C to equal that
