Opinion's on this new ls3 crate?
 

Just wondering what some of you might have to say about the new 525hp ls3 crate engine offering. And if it is or isn't a better buy then Ls7 crate?

I personally like the LS7 platform better, do you plan on modifying the crate package that you buy?

I think it all depends on what you're going to be doing with the car. The LS3 is an awesome engine and for a decent price. I think you get a lot of bang for your buck with that LS3. Thanks for posting up the link!

Looks like a good bang for your buck for a new engine.

$1300 for a cam?

For the money looks like a good deal. Do you really want to spend twice as much for another 125 hp?

lol! I agree.... it's basically a Stock LS3 engine with a cam

Ordered one yesterday from Fairway Chevy in las Vegas

Here is a good deal on a brand new LS2 Torquer crate engine from Katech, arguably one of the best engine builders. It was relisted since last week it did not sell for $6500.

I will let you in on a little secret, if you call Jason at Katech, he will in all likelyhood sell it to you for $6500. It's a one time deal.

In the spring Im gonna start looking for an LS setup I believe... I think Im wanting around 475-500 rwhp NA (was wanting LS3 but open to options). Then wanting to boost it (cant decide on blower or turbo but that will come a year or two later anyway) for about 600-700 rwhp.

Any ideas on a good crate engine to start with?
