yeah GM sells the crate motor for a good price, but have never heard of anybody installing them in a C5. You probably can if you are willing to spend GOBS of money custom fabing stuff. I just do not see it fitting between the frame rails.... :cheers:

Bruce1,
Do you have any info on the cost of this swap? I don't see why you couldn't fit a 502 if you can fit the 496. The 496 is just a stroked 454 right?
If you have any info, please share it with the group. Does this conversion allow the use of all/most of the stock accessories?
Thanks.

I have previously posted some time back that HOT ROD magazine had a small piece on a shop that did install a 502 in a C5. From the article (and picture) they had to modify the hood, the EFI only. I didn't take the time to check the archives for the specific info.

Bruce, forget a 502, that would be a total hack. If you _really_ want some power, to the tune of 500rwhp NA, give MMS a call. ;) Personally with your N2O I'd just do a mild set of heads/cam (218 cam, stage 1 heads), long tube headers, and some 16" et streets. Hello 10s! ;)

But where can I get 16" wheels that fit the C5?

What's better for more power...
- MORE CUBIC INCHES of FORCE INDUCTION???
- MORE CUBIC INCHES of FORCE INDUCTION???
Depends on how many cubic inches and how much boost (cfm, mass flow or what have you)…

I have a 540 setting in my garage. I can't even imagine what the ride would be like in my C5 with this monster. Oh well--it doesn't hurt to dream a little :crazy: But I'm sure the car would have too many problems plus emmissions problems. Still might call the boys in San Deigo just to ask?? :seeya
