GM Performance Crate Engines, Circle Track, Assembled, New Block, CT525, LS3 Heads, LS-Based, 533 HP/477 TQ, with Anti-Tampering Seals, Chevy, Each (PART #GMP-19432720)
Factory-sealed GM Performance LS3 CT525 Circle Track 376/533 long block crate engines are designed specifically for Super Late Model competition. Based on the LS family powering the C6 Corvette, they include aluminum block and 68cc cylinder heads (12675871), forged aluminum pistons (19418214), nodular iron crankshaft (12597569), and hydraulic roller tappet camshaft (88958770)--all combining to churn out an impressive 533 hp in a bulletproof, race-proven package. Recent design changes include a power-building rectangular port cylinder head that also creates a torque-y, yet relatively high-revving engine. The factory-sealed GM Performance LS3 CT525 Circle Track long block crate engine uses a conventional 4-barrel carburetor, individual runner manifold, and retains the factory coil-near-plug ignition design.
