It worked fine for me. I sold it to a buddy and he has had no problems with it. I sold it to buy a 06 z06 and hated it. So I sold it and bought a 10 camaro with a resleeved 427. Im thinking of changing pistons and going to 13.5 comp. Its making 530whp now on stock ls3s. Im shooting for high 500s. Im either going to go with mast ls3 or ls7 heads or prc ls7 heads again. Ive been trying to get ahold of eric before I make my decicion. I was going to order prc ls7s the other day but couldnt get tsp to make me a deal.
So LS7 heads(like DR J's Airwolf LS7) and intakes(such as GMMP Single Plane) fit LS2/LS3,etc blocks?
The gto made 604/547 and the camaro made 530/500. The gto cam is 247/263 .688 lift on a 113+3 and the camaro is 240/251 .630 lift on a 115.

Thats my G8 in the video posted by Killer Army. BTW its for sale if anyone is looking for a wicked G8 that was done right lol. Anyway the dry sleeve blocks from ERL i think are very solid pieces. Their machine work is top notch, as far as the power estimates everyone is throwing out its gonna depend a ton on your driveline, and how drivable you want the combo. My G8 sounds wicked, runs damn strong, and my wife can drive it to get grocerieces without me worrying she will kill herself, so it is a bit under 550whp around 502, but thats through a stalled unlocked converter on a stingy dyno. With a manual car id think 550whp out of my combo would be very doable.

I just read an old thread about Tony Mamo's 383 LS engine wonder if the same magic could be applied to a 410(4.13 bore with 3.825 stroke) or 414(4.165 bore with 3.80 stroke) sleeved LS1/2/3/7?
Sorry to op don't mean to hyjack your thread.
