Introducing the 457/460 upgrade
Want to keep up with the C6 Z06 and Zr1 crowd without dropping the 22k on the LS9 engine?
We can provide you with a 457/460 cubic inch monster that will put you in the range and beyond.

We re-sleeve an LS2 block to produce one of the finest engines on the market.

Thats a nice build as well, we sell them too but with the LS2/LS7 457 you get better power to weight ratio utilizing the aluminum block. It also keeps the weight distribution perfect. We do have some iron block Corvette customers as well but for the most part people dont like to add weight to the front end when it comes to Corvettes.

I wanted to get the iron block to handle a lot of boost, and remain reliable for a long time. So far,I have the block, and just ordered a Callie's Magum XL crank, Callie's I-Beam rods, AP Stainless rings, Coated main and rod bearings, Main studs, Melling Oil pump, and Crower Lifters. In a few weeks, I will order Trick Flow 238 heads, then spec a cam.I am shooting for 1000 RWHP under boost.

What is the finished bore in the 457?
What is the finished bore in the 460?
Do both of these motors use a non-center counterweighted 4.250 inch stroke crankshaft?
What is the cost adder for the ALL PRO LSW-12 heads with the JESEL rocker arms?

The Factory Five kit is pretty nice looking as well.
