This publication provides general information on components and procedures which may be useful when installing or servicing
an LS9 Crate engine. Please read this entire publication before starting work.
This LS9 Crate engine is assembled using brand new, premium quality components. Due to the wide range of engine applications,
if you are retrofitting a previous application, you may encounter installation differences between the LS9 crate engine assembly
and the previous engine. These differences may require modifications or additional components not included with the LS9 engine,
including cooling, fuel, electrical, and exhaust systems. Some fabrication work may be required.
It is not the intent of these specifications to replace the comprehensive and detailed service practices explained in the GM service
manuals. Reference a service manual for a 2010 - 2013 Chevrolet Corvette (LS9) for any additional information not included in this
specification.
For information about warranty coverage, please contact your local Chevrolet Performance dealer.
Observe all safety precautions and warnings in the service manuals when installing this LS9 crate engine in any vehicle. Wear eye
protection and appropriate protective clothing. When working under or around the vehicle support it securely with jackstands. Use
only the proper tools. Exercise extreme caution when working with flammable, corrosive, and hazardous liquids and materials. Some
procedures require special equipment and skills. If you do not have the appropriate training, expertise, and tools to perform any part
of this conversion safely, this work should be done by a professional.
Legal and Emissions Information
This publication is intended to provide information about the LS9 crate engine and related components. This manual also
describes procedures and modifications that may be useful during the installation of an LS9 crate engine. It is not intended
to replace the comprehensive service manuals and parts catalogs which cover General Motors engines and components.
Rather, it is designed to provide supplemental information in areas of interest to "do-it-yourself" enthusiasts and mechanics.
This publication pertains to engines and vehicles which are used off the public highways except where specifically noted
otherwise. Federal law restricts the removal of any part of a federally required emission control system on motor vehicles.
Further, many states have enacted laws which prohibit tampering with or modifying any required emission or noise control
system. Vehicles which are not operated on public highways are generally exempt from most regulations, as are some
special interest and pre-emission vehicles. The reader is strongly urged to check all applicable local and state laws.
Many of the parts described or listed in this manual are merchandised for off-highway application only, and are tagged with
the "Special Parts Notice" reproduced here:
Special Parts Notice
This part has been specifically designed for Off-Highway application only. Since the installation of this part may either impair
your vehicle's emission control performance or be uncertified under current Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, it should not be
installed in a vehicle used on any street or highway. Additionally, any such application could adversely affect the warranty
coverage of such an on-street or highway vehicle.
The information contained in this publication is presented without any warranty. All the risk for its use is entirely assumed by the user.
Specific component design, mechanical procedures, and the qualifications of individual readers are beyond the control of the publisher,
and therefore the publisher disclaims all liability incurred in connection with the use of the information provided in this publication.
