Crate 375 HP LT5
When I saw this motor on Jerry's website, I decided it would be great to have and just keep until the day its final destination is determined.
I asked good friend, and Corvette restorer, Elio Martin to fabricate a nice looking base and provision to hold a glass top over it. So, until its final destiny is determined, it's gonna make a beautiful table/conversation piece in the garage with my Corvettes. I'm also doing the same thing with a 1967 L88 motor. |

So cool! Can imagine how awesome a beer must taste when it has the honor to rest on that table!

Yeah, that sure beats the shopping cart base I used once! LOL
A nice, unique addition to your garage! John

She's all for it, until I bring it upstairs. If I try to do that, it's goodbye to my manhood😁

Re: Crate 375 HP LT5
You won't be the first person who made a LT5 into a decorative side table.
I harvested this off the web some years ago.
