Default New engine option

Anyone think it will fit in the engine bay for the ZR1?

I paid that for 135Hp less & the last few Hp options like bigger valves were the highest cost/Hp of all.

Very good numbers for a normally aspirated engine.

All new 427 DOHC 32V 775Hp engine @ $37.42/Hp

Modified 350 DOHC 32V 405 Hp to 415 DOHC 32V 640Hp engine @ $45.31/Hp

Add tax , shipping , tune with updated hardware, custom headers & exhaust. Then a clutch, transmission & axle shafts to handle the increased power. That is a dry sump oiling system on that engine so add plumbing. Might as well throw in a minimum 4 point cage because she'll be twisting the night away.

The LT5 engine back in the day was $30k, so I don't think their price is that bad honestly.

270 hp more than the LS7. How much does that MM engine weigh?

Yeah and 125 more than a SC LT4. Heads must obviously be heavier but it uses LS bottom end.
