GM V8 LS3 Engine

GM PERFORMANCE LS3 / 6 SPEED

When it comes to modern power options, the LS V8 package is a striking upgrade from the traditional Rover V8's lower horsepower.

The GM performance "crate" package features a 5th generation 6.2L 430HP LS3 engine, derived from the Camaro SS and C6 Corvette, paired with a 6L80E 6-speed automatic transmission. This complete crate combo is ready to assemble straight from the GM factory, built with top-quality components and backed by a limited 2-year/50,000-mile warranty.

We meticulously prepare and modify the Defender chassis and engine bay to seamlessly integrate this power plant. Experience a perfect blend of cutting-edge technology and high performance.
