GM also made extensive use of economies of scale for the LS: with the exception of the 4.8L and 7.0L engines, all variants used the same 3.622" stroke (with most of those variants using the same basic crankshaft casting), the 4.8L and 5.3L variants utilized the same block casting, and several variants used the same length connecting rod.

This block is one of three displacements, 302/327/350, that underwent a crankshaft bearing diameter transformation for 1968 when the rod-journal size was increased from the 2 in (50.8 mm) diameter small-journal to a 2.1 in (53.3 mm) large-journal and a main-journal size that was increased from 2.3 in (58.4 mm) to 2.45 in (62.2 mm).

The 366 cu in (6.0 L) big-block V-8 gasoline engine was used in Chevrolet medium duty trucks and school buses. It had a bore and a stroke of 3.935 in × 3.76 in (99.9 mm × 95.5 mm). This engine was made from the 1960s until 2004.The 366 used 4 rings on the pistons, as it was designed from the very beginning as a truck engine.
The 301.6-cubic-inch (4.9 L) GMC inline six was produced from 1952 to 1960, when it was replaced by the V6. It has a square bore/stroke ratio of 4 by 4 inches (101.6 mm × 101.6 mm). This is the largest raised-deck engine. It was originally designed for the GMC military M135 and M211. It was used in military 2 1⁄2 -ton trucks with the ...
For the first two years, only a regular cab and 3-door extended cab were available (the 4-door extended cab was added for 2000), along with the 4.3L V6 and the new LS-based 4.8 L, 5.3 L, and 6.0 L V8 engines (a continuation of the 6.5L Detroit turbo diesel engine on 2500 trucks was actually planned, but ultimately cancelled) paired to a 5-speed ...
LX5 (Shortstar) The GM High Feature engine (also known as the HFV6, and including the 3600 LY7 and derivative LP1) is a family of modern DOHC V6 engines produced by General Motors. The series was introduced in 2004 with the Cadillac CTS and the Holden Commodore (VZ). It is a 60° 24-valve design with aluminum block and heads and sequential ...
The external dimensions of all their V8s, from 326–455 cu in (5.3–7.5 L) were the same. Engine displacement is a function of bore and stroke. Pontiac's V8s share the same 6.625 in (168.3 mm) connecting rod length, with the exceptions of the later short deck 301, 265, and 303 Ram Air V.
These bore and stroke dimensions were later used by the 267 cu in (4.4 L) V8 Chevrolet engine. Also like the small block V8 engines, the 200 cu in (3.3 L) V6 used 2.45-inch (62.2 mm) main bearings and 2.1-inch (53.3 mm) rod bearing diameters. Being a 90° V6, Chevrolet took steps to eliminate the rough running tendencies of the 200.
