Default LT5

So i was looking through this corvette book the other day and read up on the LT5. I know they were in early 90's ZR-1 vette's, but did any of them ever make it into camaro's. Or has anyone ever swapped one in??

The LT5 was a expensive engine handbuilt by Mercury Marine and No it did not make it into any Camaro engine bay. Also to being expensive & low production numbers my opinion is none were swapped in either, This was Not your normal junkyard find andI bet GM or ZR-1 owners know where every lt5 is located.

ya i was looking into them and they are amazing motors. I guess each one they built was perfectly balanced and when the unveiled it they stood a nickel on its side on top of the motor and could run it without the nickel falling over!!
