BBC ZZ502 Crate Engine with 4L85e Transmission Chevrolet Performance CPSZZ5024L85E

New Connect and Cruise Package

Chevrolet Performance is breaking new ground with the launch of the new Connect-and-Cruise crate powertrain systems. They're factory-engineered engine-and-transmission combinations that include all the electronic control modules, wiring harnesses and other key components you need with the simplicity of one part number. Our engineers matched the engines and transmissions for optimal performance and durability, so you can wring out all the horsepower from them with total confidence. The specially calibrated controllers are designed for retrofit installation in older vehicles, for easier and quicker installation and operation, without the need for third-party tuning. Each one comes with an installation kit, including flex plates, covers and other important components to keep typical mid-project parts chasing to a minimum.

Engine and Trans Includes:

The king of all big block crate engines is the ZZ502/502, with torque and horsepower that will have you grinning and streetable manners that will have your competition wondering what hit them.

The ZZ502/502 represents our latest and best efforts to develop awe inspiring big block power in a dependable, durable and drivable big block crate engine.

With its big valve aluminum heads, roller camshaft and complete dyno tuned induction and ignition system, this is as close as you'll come to a custom built 502 at crate engine prices. And for those that like to grind on heads, change cams, mill for compression or whatever, we've left it only partially assembled. Make no mistake, everything you need is there, but you don't need to disassemble anything to make head mods or an intake swap.

It really is the best of both worlds, bolt it together and go, or tweak it to meet your specific needs. It's like someone at GM Performance Parts has been there, and we have. The ZZ502/502 makes extensive use of aluminum to keep weight down. Including aluminum heads, intake, water pump, and valve covers. Additionally, this king of the crate engines is full of heavy duty parts, to ensure that it will be making awesome horsepower for a long, long time. With its forged aluminum pistons, forged steel connecting rods with 7/16" bolts, forged steel crankshaft, 4-bolt main block, stainless steel valves, 6 quart oil pan, and windage tray, the ZZ502/502 seems more like a custom race engine.

With a 5800 RPM redline it might just feel more like a custom race engine than a crate engine too. Available as a long block kit or a complete engine kit, the ZZ502/502 is designed to meet your needs.

The base kit includes a fully assembled short block with 2.25" intake aluminum heads, valvetrain, aluminum valve covers, harmonic balancer and 14" automatic trans flexplate. The complete engine kit adds an aluminum intake manifold, 850 cfm carb, complete ignition system, gear reduction starter and aluminum water pump. Both kits include hardware and gaskets for all parts included in the particular kit.

Technical Notes: Do not use bolt sealer on the cylinder head bolts, the holes are blind tapped. The complete engine kit includes the long block kit plus intake manifold, carburetor, distributor, water pump, spark plugs, spark plug wires with looms and additional fasteners and gaskets.
