Can you get a LS1 to run in reverse rotation?
probably right?
|
I would assume you mean for marine use, so check this out:

yes, it was a question asked on another board which made me curiouls. I'd like to read that but id have to be able to read above a 4th grade level. I will check iot out tonight though when i have time, thanks.

wow, what an interesting set of posts... i never would have thought about an LS1 in a boat, but why not - every other engine type/size has been 'marinized'.
|
Why not get a counter rotation tranny or outdrive? I think that would be easier...
|
if someone makes a cam, i dont see why not if you have a heat exchanger, or ONLY run itin fresh water
|
Or just flush the block with fresh water after each use.
|
|
Yea forgot about the whole saltwater + different metals. But I would just get a gear swap to make it counter rotate.
|
or mount the prop shaft to the balancer???
|

Apparently this guy's S/C Cobalt SS's engine runs in reverse :rofl:

Yeah, I was hoping it'd get better, they kept saying "epic" so I was hoping it'd take off.

2 things first alloy motors parts never liked salt if you ever had to dissasemble one
second - its only the ((( old boat ))) stuff that has the motor turn backwards the stuff today the out drive does it < cheaper to make a drive than all the motor stuff -- like oil pump , most use gear to gear for the cam , cam it self the , the crank is a thing some have a special unit and some dont i believe its a firing order thing in a V8 that determins it not sure - never payed that much attension to boats -- jz |
How about you get an inversed turbo encabulator with a synchronized direct phase detractor to produce the proper centripetal acceleration weighted off the tangent that you are looking for and of course you would have to worry about mass*acceleration dampening...
