Anyone heard of LS3? Flow #'s inside
Do we have some production dates on any of the latest LSx heads? I myself would like to do an LS project and am very curious about the LS7 heads and when they're gonna hit the shelves.

For those of you that pay attention to .500" flow numbers, 337 is STOUT for as little work as we have put in these heads. LS7 flow numbers coming soon, as long as, you know

The LS3 was probably the motor used in the concept orange GTO and blue Colorado that GM let out for the WoodWard Dream Cruise...
I know of at least one LS1 motor that could definitely use a set of LS7 heads that flow 400cfm@800-900
I also know of a company that would love to have a set of 5.3L heads that flow 330ish cfm...

If you make sick hp from 4,000 to 7,000 who gives a rats rear end if you are down 50 ft lbs at lower rpms. Some good tuning will make the car nicely drivable at lower engine speeds. When I want to go I downshift and GO. A lot of this talk of low speed flow numbers comes from those who are stuck in the carburator era.
And these low-lift numbers are very stout

They take a very large valve stock, They also may be for a larger bore

When tooley get into the LS7 head my prediction is at or near 300@.4", 350CFM@.5"
and 400CFM will be achieved at .700" lift. If exaust side even gets to 250@ around .600"
things will be great.
Now how does that intake do, and can someone discuss runner flow and length.
