thats why i asked. “stock cubic inches” doesnt mean shit. I could build a billet blocked 5.7L anything under the sun, its just a cylinder count, bore and stroke right.
The motor I just put in this 99 Z28 is dead ass stock. LM7 pulled from jerry browns 2 years ago, and it even sat outside for 1.5 years! Pulled heads to make sure no moisture got in it, put stock HG’s back on and reused the stock head bolts for fucks sake too. 100% stock $500 truck motor in it. If it runs good and doesnt sell, maybe it will see a dirt cheap ass FI setup just to see what happens.
