Default LSX 427 Build...Watch for this one...

I just finished this one up. The owner is installing it in his C5 Z06. It will be an F1 fed, meth injected beast.

What does something like that cost? I'm looking into a 427, but would prefer a stock intake.

This was not a cheap build. It's got the best of the best part. If you are not looking to run serious boost, there are cheaper options. Best is to call me and we can talk it over.

I know Jordan is working 24/7 on it...lol. I'm planning on tuning it sometime in the next 2 weeks. We're going to have to have 20 guys sitting on the back of the car to keep it on the rollers
