GM PERFORMANCE LT1 / 6 SPEED

When exploring modern power options, the LT1 V8 package offers an impressive upgrade from the traditional Rover V8’s lower horsepower.

The GM performance "crate" package features a 6.2L 455HP LT1 engine, known for its efficiency and power, combined with a 6L80E 6-speed automatic transmission. This complete crate combo is California compliant and arrives ready to assemble directly from the GM factory, crafted with premium components and backed by a limited 2-year/50,000-mile warranty.

We expertly prepare and modify the Defender chassis and engine bay to accommodate this powerhouse. Experience the perfect fusion of cutting-edge technology, high performance, and California compliance.
