It's not a magneto. It's a conventional distributor with a single coil pack and driven by a MSD 7AL.

This makes 572 BBC sounds like a discount.

Is that really that exciting a number for a dry sump 15:1 LS variant?
A friend has a 23degree pump gas 402 that makes that, sure it has a displacement advantage but it is wet sump, pump gas 23degree all substantial disadvantages.
http://www.hotrod.com/featuredvehicl...g_to_be_small/ won his class on dragweek this year.
I would have expected more from such a max effort build, though I haven't really gotten my hand dirty with the LS yet.

that is amazing to me that you guys are able to get that much hp out of a 6.0
I applaud the effort.
but for that money, I would be getting an all aluminum reher morrison 665,
1340 hp and over 1000 ft lbs of torque NA

Not hating and not one upping.
It is a gen 1 that makes the same power and seems to use a similar rpm range and hell probably cost the same despite a plain old Callies magnum crank and Lunati rods instead of Bryant/Carrillo.
I just thought the LS platform with their advanced heads could do better.
