Published by HP Books, Chevy LS1/LS6 Performance, 1997 and Up is the reference many car buffs have been looking for. An engine for enthusiasts, the Chevrolet LS1 V-8 has been around for nearly 20 years. The small-block engine introduced for the 1997 Corvette came with an aluminum block that had plenty of features that turned heads and raised eyebrows--among them, four cylinder-head bolts that are used per bore as opposed to the five per cylinder of its small-block predecessor, and an oil passage that runs the entire length of the block, transferring oil from the oil pump driven off the front of the crank. This book highlights plenty of maximum performance tips for the LS1 as well as the LS6, and you can get it with free shipping when you order from The Motor Bookstore.
