Re: LQ9 Build for 1972 Blazer

Not to be nit-picky, but that engine would actually be a LY6, not an LQ9. LQ9s are Gen 3 engines, were last made in 2007, never had factory rectangle port "L92" heads, and were never available with VVT, had knock sensors in the valley cover, and the cam sensor at the rear of the block.

Your LS lesson for the day...haha.

With just a cam and longtubes, you should be right around 500 fwhp. Just don't put a carb on it like these idiots.
