The LS2 looks so much beefier than the LS1. I still love my LS1 though and won't give it up till it goes Grond.

Great picture layout pointing out the differences between the two engines I bet one of those will be my next upgrade when my LS1 goes, but I think I will stay stock LS2 cubes, forged of course so I can turn up the wick a little over my little setup and keep the shots coming of the assembly

A couple of questions:
How much do the bare blocks weigh? Do the LS2 and LS1 seem similar in weight when you lift and move them?
How did Chevy arrive at the 6 liter displacement? Increased bore or stroke (maybe both) over the LS1 5.7 liter?
Thanks!
