What's Included with the LTX Hot Rod Crate Motor?

GM's LTx block is an engineering masterpiece. Strong yet lightweight, it's the perfect base for building engines for the street, strip, and track.


We build to order, so if you need something special, call and ask. As a guide, though, we can sell you an LS1, LS2, an LQ9 or LS3 — or, two variants each of the LS7, LTx, and the Dart SHP Block. We use the Dart SHP to replace the RHS block because the SHP is of much higher quality and will stand up better to the horsepower you can push through the LTx crate engines..


A complete engine from us consists of the following:

  • Long block - This LTx crate motor is assembled from top-quality American components and includes the custom machined heads
  • Intake system - The Golen LTx engines come with a full intake system plus throttle body, injectors, and fuel rail
  • Ignition system - Optional components include an ignition coil, plugs, and wires.


In addition, every complete LTx engine leaves our shop with a one-year, no-mileage limit warranty.


The LTx crate engines for sale here are engineered to be boost-ready. If you plan on adding a centrifugal or Roots-style supercharger, they'll take the load. We can also custom-build an LTx GM engine for turbo applications.


With an in-house machine shop, plus balancing facilities and two dynamometers, we're fully equipped to build engines that are powerful and reliable. What's more, blueprinting is always part of the service.


Hot Rod LSx Crate Engines Built for Power

Anyone seeking a complete LT engine for sale almost certainly wants more power. Our turnkey Hot Rod crate engines will not disappoint. From the 550hp of an LS2 to the 800hp made by a 502ci Dart SHP, these engines deliver outputs to match the beautiful sound they make. (Needless to say, when blown, you'll get much, much more).


Should anyone doubt your LTx engine horsepower claims, we've got you covered. The engines we build go through our dyno test service before shipping. That gives you graphs listing horsepower and torque as well as other engine vitals.


Golen Engine Service Advantages

We believe our engineering expertise and in-depth knowledge of the LTx crate engine make for an unrivaled combination. We do our own machining and balancing, and every engine goes through a two-oil change break-in.


When you talk to Golen Engine, you deal directly with our engine specialists. There are no salespeople to get in the way. Plus, when you need something special for your Hot Rod engine, just ask.
