Default LS7 pricing a few days away per this post...

Posted: Fri Jun 17, 2005 10:11 pm Post subject: LS7 News!!!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

From some reliable sources:

The LS7 (complete engine) will be priced in the $14-15k range. This will be announced officially in the next day or so. No break down of the individual components yet.

However, there will also be some LS7 and L76 heads for sale within the next 30 days.

Stay tuned for details.

The L76 heads are the next generation truck heads that are based on the same design as the LS7 head. They are not CNC ported, but they have the same basic port designs. They are great looking heads with a slightly smaller intake valve and therefore should be able to use standard rocker arms (as opposed to the offset ones necessary on the LS7).

Sent you a PM.



The other thing I didn't mention in that post is that there will only be ~150 complete engines available through the end of this year. So get ready to get in line.

depending on the complete price you could also do this to save some money

ls7 block+Lunati LS1 427 Rotating Assembly+milled l76 truck heads,pick your own cam

if it is 15K this might be a cheaper option then getting the whole motor complete and still have a great rotating assembly...i know its not titainim but it will do hahaha
