Default ls7 in a 240sx?

they say its a ls7 but it has 243 heads on it, wouldnt that be a step backwards? it is a nice looking and very well done car tho thats for sure. i love the interior on this thing. not my car and i had nothing to do with the build, but i basically wanted to know why anyone wanted to put 243 heads on a ls7? doesnt make much sense to me, seems to me as if it isnt even a ls7 but idk?

That's no LS7. Just ordinary LS1.

Probably just a bunch of dumb *** ricers. They got an LS6 crate motor (C5 Z06) but a nameplate from the later year LS7 equipped Z06 vettes (C6 Z06). Guess it confused the translator when he wrote the article.

yeah, i questioned the picture and all the "know it alls" said its a ls7. i just couldnt see why theyd put 243 heads on a ls7 block, also the intake manifold looked small in the runner area lol. but nope i was just called a dumbass for not being to read and actually using my eyes to spot the "ls7" flaws. awesome car tho other than the stretched tires, i just dont get that fad.. man tho i cant get over how awesome that interior is. i wouldnt even want to sit in it without wearin a fresh clean suit every time lol. i wish my pockets were deep enough to make my gmc s15 this nice.. just gunna have to win the lotto to have that happen
