Summit Racing® Iron LS Engine Blocks SUM-4853L
The LS engine design has incredible potential, but once you start bolting on big superchargers, an aluminum block just can't contain all of that power. These Summit® iron LS blocks have all of the same potential, but their cast iron construction is capable of withstanding high-horsepower applications.
