    You really need the heads and intake to take advantage of the LS7. That's why I went with the Livernois LS3 stroker.
    Rest in Peace Charlie!

    I went with a ls3 427 from Thompson motorsports and I was not prepared for a engine swap when my 6.0 went out so I am trying to just get the g8 back on the road as cheaply as possible while still getting a 427 lol

    Weren't you the guy that can only get goatspiss fuel at one of your locations?
    Sure hope you told the engine supplier about it.
    It will need good quality fuel and plenty of it if you expect the above numbers for any longer than the first 13 minutes of it's lifespan.
