What ever happened to that V16 LS base engine GM was going to build for the Cadillac 16 concept? I would imagine it was the same thing with 4 less cyls. Just cant wait for a mass production of these LSX V12’s stroke it to a 554 Twin turbo T88’s 
2000hp should be a piece of cake in this thing! Now all GM needs to do is build a Mid Engine Supercar and say good bye to the FORD GT. But that is merely a pipe dream. Ill be fine with a V12 Corvette 
Wait what?

Pure awesome.
Am i the only one wondering what it would sound like with a super lopey pair of camshafts modded to fit it? Im thinking ky G5X4 cammed LS1 as a V12.

I'm glad to see you guys are doing something new and awesome. The fact that you're keeping the crossplane sound is going to make this V12 sound really awesome!
I hate all this nonsense of "Even firing orders" That's why V6's and I4's sound boring. Yamaha fixed that with the 2009+ R1. Now you guys are doing it with the LS-12.
Perhaps someone should fabricate headers for 4.3's that group cylinders 162, and 435. Or maybe a crossplane crankshaft kit for Ecotec I4's.

Who is doing the regrinding?
Maybe a company like LSM could make a master core for you guys, and then get you whatever duration, lift, split you want?
