BTW, That's an LS6 sbc, 350 c.i. (346 really). Your looking for an LS1, get a camaro. The difference you ask? about 55rwhp and 100 or so ft lbs of torque.

Check ebay for a '97 Vette model. I think it's made by Monogram or AMT/Ertl. Damn, it might be Revell, I just can't remember.

Re: Where can i get a 1/24 scale LS1 V8 motor from the Corvette

heh.. i got TONS of LS1's laying around. You might want to go with the Revell Camaro (As it comes with the LS1, and comes witha 6-Speed) The revell Vettes come with automatic transmissions. Also, the Camaro transmission is easier to work with.
