youre arguing with the same guy that tried convincing this subforum that a bumper and front clip are the same thing.
I'm not arguing so much as dragging the ignorance out of him for all to see.

Literally no interchangeable parts?
That's not what I heard, but I'm far from a fucking Chevy guy soooo...
If I cared enough, I would research it.
But. Chevy. Soo...
Yes. Nothing interchanges but the woodruff key on the crank, the piston pins, the valve spring retainers, and valve spring locks.. They are completely different.

Also, they are still modular. Just FYI.
Modular refers to the tooling required to make the engines, not the parts that fit on them.
The same machines that made the LS are making the LT.
Modular.
Keep posting, please, it gets better and better. Thst is not what modular means. The LS bottom and and LT bottom end are modular in that they can accept parts from each other interchangeably. LS engines aren't completely modular between generations. Try bolting ls3/7/9 LQ4/9 heads on a 4.8/5.3/LS1 or LS6.
You are completely wrong about the meaning and the word and the tooling. GM spent $400,000,000 retooling the Tonawanda plant to produce the Gen V. Like I said, they are totally different besides the bore spacing.
