Yeah, kinda like when people call all LS engines LS1's.
The L33 was sort of a sneak peek of the Gen IV aluminum 5.3 with the 243/799 heads, more compression, and slightly better cam, though not the same one used in the Gen IV.

Thanks.
Im still kicking, wife and I decided to put in a new house, and I’ve started homeschooling my kids so life has been wild to say the least. Be back on her shortly though.

It’s an LC9, as specified in post 115

Soon buddy, life slowed me down for a bit. But now I’m considering selling me swapped Chrysler 300 to buy a nice set of heads for this. Maybe.
