Dart Machinery, LTD. stands behind each product we manufacture 100%. Each component undergoes a detailed manufacturing process that involves the hundreds of calculated and precision steps to ensure the finest quality possible.
Designed from a clean slate approach the LS Next Aluminum block has addressed the shortcomings of the LS platform and is the ideal candidate for hot rodders, drag racers, circle track competitors, off-roaders, and high performance marine enthusiasts. By utilizing conventional style main caps and oil pans with LS rotating assemblies and related components, Dart has addressed the windage and oil control problems which result from the factory LS engine’s separated crankcase bays.
