Default Displacement...

Ok I know the LS2 is a 6.0 I always thought in cubic inches it was a 402... Am I wrong? If I am right then why does Lingenfelter sell a 366 motor why go smaller?

402 = 6.6 liters
366 = 6.0 liters

The LS2 is a 364 cubic inch displacement. Do the math; 101.6mm bore X 92mm stroke =5.97Liter OR; 4" bore X 3.62" stroke = 364 cu. in.

The "6.0L" label from GM is their usual rounding up, just like the LS1 was actually 346 cubic inches rounded up to 350.
