Default G-Force 2001 Z06 LS3 Conversion Dyno and Vids!

I had a customer who hydro locked his motor in the storm last week. He was pretty bummed but I think hes smiling now!

The LS3 swap is a great choice for alot of these higher mileage F-Bodys and Corvettes. Turn around in most cases can be done in less than a week!

What is hydrolocked engine?
An engine that got water in the cylinders and locked up.

Hydro=water
Locked = toast.

No this is the GMPP 430 HP LS3. For a few more bucks you can get the GMPP Hot Cam engine rated at 480 HP.

Yes the Ligenfelter 58x to 24x box works perfect and is a snap to install.
We sell them for 275.00.
