Zach1647545520 Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Requires a 4" bore. LS1's I believe can not be bored that big from what I understand. Around 3.908" is max I've read people running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 You won't be able to use those. Talk to IPS tomorrow when you go in, they have some nice heads and their prices are really good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SinisterSS Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 I thought GM made L92 "style" heads for LSx cars that are smaller than a 4" bore? I know I read it somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMeanGreen Posted March 27, 2009 Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Style? Yes. But not direct L92s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Katech makes KILLER engines, I think they can port a head or two. They do still continue to make some serious performance parts, as a tier three dealer with them, we are very up to date on their happenings. Its a shame they are going to have a more difficult time now with out GM subsidiaries. Hope they make out for the best! -Brandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagner Posted March 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 (edited) Well after talking with IPS I am very comfortable with using them I think. The person I talked to on Friday took a good chunk of time to talk to me and gave some great information.
