It also fits the Corvette LS6 engine and any other Gen III engine including the LM7 (5.3L), LR4 (4.8L), and LQ4 (6.0L). It allows the use of a carburetor on these originally computer-controlled engines, offering maximum power and a broad torque curve from 1500 to 6500 rpm. The Performer RPM LS1 is available with an optional wiring harness and electronic Timing Control Module made by MSD this ignition module is for LS1 (24x) ignitions only and works with OE sensors to fire the Coil-on-Plug ignition system and offers a choice of six timing curves (sold separately). A special throttle and trans bracket that works with 700R-4, 200R-4 and Turbo 350 transmissions is included, making the LS1 engine an easy retro-fit into any muscle car, street rod or marine application. This PN 71187-BP version comes with a beautiful reflective Black Plasma finish that is durable and easy to maintain. The Plasma finishes are applied by a fully automated 7 stage prewash and 4 stage finish. A durable clear powder coat finishes the process.

- LS1 (24x) applications can be recognized by the rear mounted cam position sensor which is black in color, while LS2 (58x) cam sensor is mounted in the timing cover and is gray in color
- Crankshaft sleeve HP3795 and Flexplate HP4004 is recommended when using a TH350, TH400 or 700R4 on a LS1
- Use RTV sealant to properly seal end seals, such as Edelbrock High Temp Silicone sealant 1076, DO NOT USE END SEALS GASKETS
- Hardened washers must be used with intake bolts to ensure proper torque and prevent galling of the aluminum.
- Sealant must be used on intake bolt threads if the threads extend into lifter valley or coolant passage
- NPT/Pipe thread fittings require the use of Teflon tape or paste on threads to ensure proper seal
- DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN NPT/Pipe fittings, this may cause the aluminum to crack around the fitting boss. NPT/Pipe thread is a tapered thread
- Carburetor size (CFM) should be selected based on your specific engine combination
- To ensure maximum performance and a proper seal, Edelbrock gaskets which are specifically designed and manufactured for use with Edelbrock parts must be used
