When it comes to building horsepower and torque, you need to start at the bottom and work your way up. Bullet-proof your LS engine's bottom-end with high quality components from Manley Performance. These fully balanced rotating assemblies are designed for performance enthusiasts wanting to get the most out of their engines.

Today, Manley Performance continues to re-define itself in a high performance aftermarket industry that is constantly evolving.They’ve developed new products for growing markets such as sport compact, Ford modular and Chevy LS; as well as maintained their leadership role with the traditional V8 engine business. This is the reason why we have carefully selected this renowned brand to supply us with these components that play a crucial role in an engine’s performance and driveability characteristics.

Stroking out the 5.7L LS1 V8 to no more than 383 cubic inches (6.3L) is fundamental in preserving its reliability. Unfortunately, given the manufacturing processes that were in place at the time of release, the cast iron cylinder liners could only be bored out by 0.010”. Anymore than this could potentially deform cylinder walls under high pressure, especially in boosted applications.

Unfortunately, Manley Performance does not have an off-the-shelf kit ready to go for the LS1. Therefore, we have taken the time and used our sought after automotive engineering background to select an appropriate combination from their custom parts list to suit both naturally aspirated and boosted setups.
