Nice pictures, but you took the two cars apart just to take them?

Wow, lot of work.

Thnaks.

Uh, no...

LS1 crank is out of an 02 Coupe that received an LS2 402. The LS7 crank is out of a crate motor... disassembled to have its CR lowered for forced induction...

Do you weigh it when you balance it? If so, I'd really like to know what the part(s) weigh out to.

Does the LS7 block look like the ls1 front cover, oil pump and pan would work with it?

I see the reluctor has changed. I wonder what else is different (LS7 vs LS2)??

I noticed that too. It kinda looks like there's still no Woodruff key for the harmonic balancer/pulley. I wonder if the collar on it slides up on to the keyed portion of the crank snout. Keyed is better.
