LS7 a 7.0L Looks like the Caddy team forgot to use some duct tape. I was at the World Challenge race at Laguna Seca over the weekend, and I got to see the Pratt & Miller boys change an engine in one of the CTS-vR's. Look what was cast into the block:
Here's a pic of the top of the motor:
Look at the big runners and the 90mm TB. This is the same setup that was on the GTO show car.
This is the head casting number:
You can also see the big exhaust port. You can't see in this pic, but its a D-port.

This is what makes me think that this must be a production Gen 4 block. The exhaust ports can also be seen.

In the last pic, there was a little fence right where I was standing to take the pic. When the had to take the engine out, they had to move the fence to fit the hoist in front of the car. I was literally feet away when I got those pics.
