Jasper LT1

[QuickTop]

Ill try and make this as quick as i can, for those of you who know, i am looking at a 96 trans am with what the ad said to have had a replaced LT1. When i called the guy he told me he had replaced the LT1 with one from jasper, at that time i had no idea what Jasper was i just thought it was a place to find stock LT1's but when i did some research i found that there is a Class 1 and Class 2. Heres what i found about class 2http://www.jasperengines.com/pdf/Cla...-5.7-340-L.pdf i dont know yet if it is a class 1 or 2.
what im asking is, has anyone had these engines or heard anything about how reliable they are. its got 40k on it now..

Thanks, Bryan.

my trucks engine is a 350 tbi from jasper about 43k on it and im having some sort of issue but it might be bad fuel. overall i think jasper is one of the better names just make sure you get the paperwork proving its rebuild and if its under warranty get that info as well

is it a class 1 stock replacement or class 2 performance?

Of course, i did hear that Jasper has a warranty but does like to screw people out of it whenever things go wrong.

mine was just a replacement i voided the warranty after i threw a different bumpstick in it and a few other things, i was already close to voiding it. different vehicles or categorys of vehicles have different warrantys from my understanding

Ohhh, The only downside im seeing is. i was really looking forward to the stock LT1 making 325 ft/lbs tq at 2400 RPM. especially with a 6 speed. but this motor makes it much higher.. oh well.

Yeah Jasper is the aftermarket engine replacement from my understanding.

[nascarnate326]

Do they take OEM engines with issues and rebuild them or do they make everything them selvs?

[jetice]

They reman old, good engines for replacements. They are good engines, we installed a couple dozen and never had one come back from a bad replacement, and if one did come back for for what ever reason, jasper comped the cost of everything. I would treat it no differently than a stock engine.

Jasper has good reman engines. I bought a Chevy van years ago that had one and no issues.

They lowered the stock compression on their performance engine.

The cam is a big bigger.
