Just think what a more agressive cam and some tuning will do to wake this up.
I'm still a bit hesistant on the specs like the titanum rods and the lift profile on the cam and chamber size yada yada.
This Block, heads and intake will be a great starting point for a beast.
It'll be interesting to see what quality of crank forging it gets and whether it does goet exotic rods. My opinion is that money can be better spent elsewhere then on titanium rods.

I'd take one. 
I still wish they would have made a more agressive front, or atleast shaded those damn headlight enclosures. God that yellow behind the headlights just bugs me.
Anyways, I'm glad that the 7.0L is a reality.

wow is all i can say.. that will be at supercar level w/ z06 weight & that power.
some 427's are putting down 500rwhp.. do you think GM is under rating these? seeing the 11.1:1 compression ratio i'd think it would put down good #'s
a 10sec bone stock car would be well worth the $$!
