if one were to swap the crank/rods from an ls into a gsr bottom end would it...

affect reliabiltiy?

be able to safely rev to 8200rpm?

require any modification to the block? (clear oil squiters etc..)

lastely..would the gains be worth the extra work?

 

Should I assume you're using ARP rod bolts or would you be useing OEM rod bolts?
I'm not sure what gains you are expecting to see over a gsr crank?

 

right now im just "reasearching", IF the gains arent worth the work i most likely wont even consider it

 

i like the low end the ls crank gives.
i have arp rod bolts in mines and jdm itr pistions. 200whp 140 torque

 

those are nice numbers..whats your setup? if you dont mind me asking.

in your opinion do you think it was worth it to run the ls crank over a gsr one?

 

ported gsr head aebs intake manifold profab header,
bored out gsr tb
skunk2 stage2s with skunk2 valvetrain
ls crank and rods jdm itr pistons

i guess its worth it you wont get this kinda of torque with a gsr.

heres my dyno

what does it make on a dynojet??

 

we do them all the time, its a great upgrade for a GSR block just make sure you get the right pistons
