About the LS7 427 Crate Engine Package

GM created the LS7 for the 2006 Corvette Z06. It is a hand-assembled 7.0L (427 cubic inch) V8 with titanium connecting rods, a forged crankshaft, CNC-ported heads and a dry-sump oiling system in factory form, rated at 505 horsepower. Chevrolet Performance later offered it as a crate engine because builders wanted that same combination for restomods and race cars.

An LS7 427 crate engine package gives you one of the most respected naturally aspirated V8s ever built, with factory engineering behind it. It is a natural fit for high-end Camaro, Chevelle, Corvette and pro-touring projects.

Planning Your Build

• Decide between dry-sump and wet-sump oiling for your chassis and use.
• Choose a Chevrolet Performance controller kit or other suitable ECU.
• Plan exhaust, fuel and cooling systems for the power level.

Installation Tips

Follow the oil fill procedure carefully if using the dry-sump system, prime the engine and verify oil pressure before first start. Inspect valve guides during maintenance, as recommended by many LS7 specialists.
