LS HERITAGE

The engine family commonly called the LS series debuted in 1997. General Motors called it the Gen III Small-Block, with the iron-block versions in trucks and the all-aluminum LS1 version introduced in the then-new C5 Corvette. A year later, the LS1 replaced the Gen II LT1 Small-Block in Camaros and Firebirds. The LS1 displaced 5.7 liters, similar to the previous-generation Small-Block, but the cubic-inch measurement differed slightly: 346 for the LS1 vs. the traditional 350 cubes.

In 1999, the Gen III platform spawned the higher-performance LS6 that was standard in the Corvette Z06. In 2005, the Gen IV branch of the LS family was born, differing from the Gen III with cast-in provisions for fuel saving cylinder deactivation, larger displacements and revised camshaft sensing. The performance versions of the Gen IV include the LS2, LS3, LS9 supercharged and LS7.

GM has continued to refer to its modern V-8 engine family as Gen III and Gen IV, but to the enthusiasts who quickly grasped the tremendous performance potential of the engines, every engine based on the platform is nicknamed “LS.” The range of production engines from the LS platform is
wide. On the truck side, iron-block engines have included 4.8L and 5.3L versions, as well as all-aluminum 6.0L and 6.2L premium engines. Car engines include 5.3L, 5.7L, 6.0L, 6.2L and 7.0L displacements, including some configured for front-wheel drive.
