The Dart LS NEXT2 Chevy LS Gen III Aluminum Block is engineered for demanding automotive applications, offering a robust foundation for high-performance engine builds. It features a standard deck height of 9.240 inches and a 4.125-inch cylinder bore diameter, with the capability to be bored up to 4.165 inches to accommodate larger displacements. Key specifications include a 4-bolt main cap configuration with included steel main caps and fasteners, ensuring maximum stability and reliability under high stress. The block is machined for counterweighted crankshafts and 1/2-inch head studs, further enhancing its performance potential. It is designed with a 1-piece rear main seal style and standard camshaft location. While the block is sold individually, it does not come with finished cylinder bores, cam bearings, or freeze plugs, allowing for custom tailoring to specific build requirements. This engine block is an ideal choice for enthusiasts and racers focused on building powerful and reliable LS engines. Its robust construction and design flexibility make it suitable for a wide range of performance applications, including hot rodding, drag racing, circle track, off-road, and marine use. The LS NEXT2 Aluminum Engine Block (Skirted) offers an upgrade path for those seeking enhanced performance and durability from their Chevy LS engine.
