v12tommy, you are correct about cubes. Sorry i posted wrong info as i was overdone when i posted that. I had been doing hundreds of calculations re the various cubes of engines over the past few weeks for an R&D. Here is a tidbit for you, the NEW big block Chev of 8 liters ( not 8.1 liter ) will be used for propane use in Freightliner trucks for the 2012 models. It will be in the Daimler Freightliner M2 106, 33,000 medium duty chassis & also used 4 motorhomes & by GM for industrial use,
Notice that the cubes were much bigger than the 427 at 454 which is a 4.5 inch crank at the same bore as the 427. Great for boats or trucks than need more torque at a lower RPM. This would be the prefect engine for industrial use if run with propane and propane fuel injection Should run for 16 hours all day at about 2,000 RPM for making electricity for small towns and industrial camps.
@CREDITS4CARBON a 454 is a 4.25" stroke crankshaft, not a 4.5 inch. That is a big difference. 427 is 4.125 bore by 4 inch stroke. 440 (like the one in the video) is 4.125 inch square, and a 454 is 4.125 bore and 4.25 inch stroke.
Is it possible to mount the heads from an LT5 ZR-1 motor to this block? That would be a great addition to this motor package. The DOHC heads could allow for even more aggressive cams, getting over 10,000RPM.
That's too bad. It would be great to engineer a way to make the LT5 heads fit. That would probably be the biggest improvement to the LSX engine you could make.
In a word, no. There's no way to fit that kind of power into a car that architectually weak. You wouldn't only have to replace the engine, you would need a new transmission, new driveshaft, new axle, new suspension, and new brakes to stop all that power. And even then you have a very heavy engine on a weak frame. It would be very front-heavy and would be completely uncontrollable. You would probably end up flying off the road.
8,200rpm WHOOHOO!!!!!!!!

@sprydo7 There’s a CRX running around here on youtube with a small block Chevy motor. It wouldn’t take too much to adapt it to an LS engine.

DAMN!!! That is one nice engine. Can't wait to see some people drop it in some late model T/A and bring back the 455 SD.
