Bithing an LS9 - video

Video of an LS9 being put together.

Quote:
Automobile Magazine was invited into General Motors Performance Build Center to watch and lightly assist in the buildup of a ZR-1's internal combustion heart. It takes four-and-a-half hours of real time to go from a bare block to a fire-breathing, supercharged LS9, but through the magic of sped-up video, it only takes seven minutes of your life. You won't come away with anything productive for that time, unlike the people in the video, who get the pleasure of creating a small-block V8, but it's a neat picture of how it all comes together. We just hope that some other poor sucker gets the motor that the magazine intern fiddled with. Video posted after the jump.

It was pretty interesting, I havn't put together any LSx motors but i have put countless 1st gen small blocks and big blocks together and it was pretty neat of how a few of the things are different. I kind of wish it would have showed them putting in the rotating assy. also.
