If the parts are not available, and at a reasonable cost, I probably won't be able to use it...unless someone comes up with another solution...like using an LS1 PCM and aftermarket harness.

So, about the LS7 heads. What if a friend who's buying a new Z06 calls the dealer and tells them that he took his heads off and tried to port them and messed them up and threw them away. Now he needs new ones sent to him from GM, will they send them? Or will they tell him his car is now unusable?
