Careful guys, Race Proven Motorsports in Delaware, dyno ed Lingenfelters Corvette and the cost to hp gain was a little to be desired. If you have Lingenfelter money, you have Late Model Racecraft money in Houston showing strong gains. My Camero is scary to me now! Thanks Steven!
Engines physical size doesn’t change! Only the bore & stroke! Check around, because a guy has already done an actual big block Corvette! It’s on CZcams!
Just saying that an LS/LT engine is the same outside dimensions whether it’s a 4.8 truck engine or a 7.0 427 LS7, the CID or Liter displacement comes from the bore and stroke inside the block, they can go up to 464 with the standard short deck that came in production vehicles, and I think 495 with a billet crank, the aftermarket tall decks can go over 500 cid.
Thanks for watching! We're actually checking with Lingenfelter on this to find out as we're not sure if it's the same engine and transmission setup in the e-Ray 😊
Those days are coming to an end fast… Electrification in combination with ICE is the future of many performance car manufacturers… Corvette has to stay relevant and the only to do that and compete on the stage is to adapt. First Z06, then Eray, next ZR1, then ZORA.. Lamborghini, Ferrari, McLaren & Porsche are Corvettes competitors and are killing it with electrification. The future is here.
But guys, it's a bigger number, which means it's a bigger motor. It's literally a bigger cubic inch. It probably also has those really high gears, like 4.56's 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@jamesgeorge4874 literally no one in the video said anything about it being a big block lol. And it’s an LT not a LS, try listening before commenting next time so you don’t look stupid.
A revised LS7 should have been in the C8 Z cars. There was no reason to build the Ferrari wannabe overly complicated LT6. The LT6 development dollars should have gone toward reducing weight by 500lbs. GM needs to take a lesson from Porsche in iteration instead reinventing the wheel every model. Since Tadge isn’t allowed to buy his own personal Ferrari, he’s trying to turn the Corvette into one.
@garyglenn3654 very true 👍 cuz going fast is addicting 🤔 we should probably aim for 1000+ and bottle 🍼 feed it too 😈😈😂😂 I can hear my neighbors complaining now 🤣🤣🤣🤣
We owe the modern day 427 to John lingenfelter! R.i.p John.
Because the 7 liter displacement is the internal swept volume of the engine. It doesn't at all change the external dimensions.
I was gonna say that they are the same size, thanks for this !
4 inch stroke 4.125 piston.. oh wow so hard that literally every shop are doing it. That 8.1 c8 is more impressive
Great video, Fresh Vintage! Thank you for taking the time to chat with Mark Rapson about the build & showing off our performance passion project!
Absolutely thank you as well! Lingenfelter bringing the 427 heat for C8 owners around town or on the track 🔥🔥🔥💯

You can't even spell Camaro you probably drive a Chevette
Sounds awesome!
Alter Falter ist das ein Sound 🤣🤣🤣🤣 mit 7.1 😱😱😱😱 der Hammer 👌👌😁😁
That’s a bad ass Vette
That antique lump will be bending the frame…
Now thats how a C8 should idle! =)
Did he say the 427 “Goes back to the very first one (Corvette)” ? Umm…???
He did say that 😂 i mean, 2nd gen is close enough

How they fit a 427 in there? Because the outside dimensions are the same for a 4.8,5.3,5.7,6.0,6.2 and 7.0
Small block
Threse a guy that just put an 8L in one
Not a tall deck block its dimensions are unchanged. I have a 416 LS9

It is awesome. Does it work with E-Ray too?

👏👏👏👏👏👏
It fit because it’s the stock motor that came in it just different rods pistons crank and sleeves
Is that a VIR bib? If so what event is this? That car will be a beast around the track!!
Yes Sir! We were at Hyperfest 2024 checking things out and have several videos on the event with more on the way too 😁
Thank you for the quick response. I will Google that event for next year. That is one of My favorite tracks! Loved racing motorcycles there.
Now put in a manual trans
It's not the old big block. LS is a different story
Well it's NOT a Big Block! That's a 427 ci small block LT motor.
Hence the title of the video 427 cubic inches ☺️ Thanks for watching!
Is it LS based or LT based
LT
GM,Are you listening?
Wow, an engine swap with diff bore size. Ground breaking.
It’s not a swap dingus
Oh good, a step backwards. What’s next, a Flathead?
I heard the next Corvette will have no floor boards and you'll just use your feet 😂
Why do all this for 704 HP when you can buy the Z06 with 670 HP? A little tune, intake and exhaust and you're looking at 690HP.
Reliability and cheaper

They are nowhere near coming to the end. With die hard enthusiasts, I’m not sure that there will ever be an end.
Not a Big Block.

Higher numbers are always better in gearing right?! 😂
There is a old guy that builds corvettes with a CZcams channel. He put a real big block in his c8. It's a 427 or 454. Not a ls based engine.
Thanks! Do you know the channel's name? Would be great to check it out 👍👍
@@freshvintage let me look it up. He actually had to make a set of big block heads to work with the c8.
Larry horver is the builder. It's on Greg quirin channel
@@uberdriver5711 Thanks for this we really appreciate it!
Greg Quirin put an actual 8.1 L big block in a C8, before you LS swapped one. Sorry. Facts.
Thanks for letting us know we will delete our video right now 😂
Last time I checked 8.1 liters isn’t a 427….
@@fatdan172501 last time I checked an LS wasn't a "big block"

So barely more power than zo6 🤔😒😒😒
The question is.... the tune thats shown is it at its lowest setting middle or high? I'm pretty sure it can make more if they wanted it to
Trust me when I say if I had a C8 and had the cash to drop a 427 in it I would 100% do it 😁
Z06 is cool and all but it's not 427 cool 😎
@freshvintage I need more 🤪 if I'm gonna do swap I need at least 800 at the wheel 😌😌😌😌
@@mryeahisaidit And if this 800HP would you say you need 900?🙄

$150k no thanks
That's a dumb thumbnail we all know how they get to be that big
Thanks for your comment! We are actually testing three different thumbnails which one did you see?
LS7 is 7 litre
