What is your favorite Corvette engine?, include all information you know about the engine also thank you. Personally I like the 396 Turbo-Jet from a 1965 corvette, it produces 425hp.

Lingenfelter Twin-Turbo LS1 427, but I don't think that counts.

Well because it's not really built by chevy & it costs as much as a C5 was new. Can you beleive there is actually a 2yr/24K mile warranty on something like that? Well for $50,000 there better be something to back it up!

I like this part:
0-60 MPH 3.2 seconds with street tires
1/4 mile 9.50 @ 145 MPH with street tires
Estimated top speed 230

And according to all the magazines that have tested this engine/car claim it still gets 20MPG when driven normally.(probably 6mpg under full boost)

RIP Mr. J. Lingenfelter - I was unaware of his passing.

20 miles to the gallon, holy crap how much horsepower does it have?, my 65' GTO has 360hp and it gets about 10-12 miles a gallon.(on good days)

I wouldn't buy an entire car for that much or more, unless I really wanted the car.

LT-5 Engine. The ZR-1 engine's were in my opinion the best. Well the latter or the years.

DVS LT1

I'd go with the LT5 as well - not my favourite Vette engine but I think it is (and will be remembered as) the most popular. Probably because it was a 32 valve high revvin twin cam engine (don't think it had ever been offered in a Vette before). I wouldn't necessarily say it was "the best" Vette engine either but it continues to enjoy the most allure and mysticism.

L-88 all the way!

The 427 in the Lingenfelter is the same engine (not as tuned) that they use in the C5R Vette. What a wicked motor. Lingenfelter does offer just the motor, it pushes 500hp I believe, a very moddest number hehe. Other than that, I'm going with the L-88. Quite possible the most underrated Corvette engine ever.

The C5R isn't turbo, is it?
