Anyone got $13,000 laying around they want to give me? If so, I was thinking I could pick up a new (well, used) engine for the V.

2 31.2mm restrictors have ~32% the flow area of a single 78mm throttle body, and only ~24% the flow area of a 90mm throttle body, so that gives you some idea of the restriction this thing was breathing through.
I can only imagine how ridiculous the throttle response must be with the individual throttle bodies and all that power/torque!

Intake is over $10k
Oil pump is $10k
I could go on and on.
You don't want to know what the price of the newer LS7.R is then.
$130k before it was DI
