It's also called 100k there buddy...45k and 100k is just a slight difference.

That supercharger seems very inefficient from the ones I have seen on other vehicles...

Wow, that looks to be one really tiny blower pulley. Very little to no room to up the boost by swapping to a smaller pulley..without belt slippage.

Glad to see GM growing a pair and doing this beast.

I doubt I'll be the first, but I'm reworking my car budget as we speak. I was leaning toward an LS3 or LS7 for my Z, but I think this thing just won the debate. Nice!

Isn't the LS9 just an LS3 with better internals?

You guys are killing me. You could have this power too. It's not a dream and it's not $100K. I'm no engine builder, but I'd get a hold of Matt @ SDPC.
1. Stroked L92 Shortblock (416 CID) is $4689
http://www.sdparts.com/product/SDL92...stons10cc.aspx
2. Ported L92 Heads are $1500 a PR
http://www.sdparts.com/product/SD880...ftSprings.aspx
3. L76 Carburated Manifold for $369
http://www.sdparts.com/product/25534...IMachined.aspx
4. Holley 850 CFM 4150 Carb for $483
http://store.summitracing.com/partde...5&autoview=sku
5. STS Turbo for $4995
http://www.ststurbo.com/gto

Well now that's about $13,000...
Why don't we save a couple of thousand and settle for a normally asperated 755 HP crate engine for $10,850
