0604Htp 20 Wheel To Wheel Powertrain Crate Motor Z

Wheel to Wheel advertises its 402ci long-block as "the perfect answer for anyone looking for a high quality step up from their factory LS-based engine." This engine makes 575 hp standard corrected or 550 hp SAE. The company says it chooses what it feels are "the best parts to make good power and torque, while maintaining excellent drivability, idle quality, and most importantly, durability." The company also claims fame for Grand American Daytona Prototype 24-hour and sprint race engines, SCCA World Challenge and Motorola Cup Race Engines, the first 8-second naturally aspirated drag race engine, and the first 6-second power adder drag race engine--all based off GM's Gen III/IV engine platform.
