ps, i had one of the first lsx motors running that i know of, i got it on the first shipment (block number 126 i think it was) and i had it all up and running befor most did.
i found a couple issues with it that they changed already and a couple they didnt . you need a ls2 vally cover and ls2 front cover. the rear cover and cam cover come with the lsx block. you will have to extend your cam sensor wiring to the front of the motor, and depending what crank you get you may need to swap 2 wires side to side to fool your computer into thinking its the right reluctor wheel
hope this helps

Have been doing some research this past week on LS7 heads. Was thinking of putting on the World LS7 6 bolt heads but read somewhere that they will not bolt up to the GM LSX block and only work on the Warhawk block. Can anyone verify this?
