Cause I thought it was a genv motor...... if I put this in wrong area I I do apologize to everyone but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal and I honestly think that anybody that has to make a big deal or point out that it’s in the wrong section is a tool.... Again apologize to everyone if I put this in the wrong place my mistake I am not a know it all

LS7 is Gen IV. You can name-call me all you want, but I'm not the one who does NOT know what he has... I did not call YOU any well-deserved names, did I.....

I could break down the whole motor and the car I just didn’t know what Gen the motor was I do apologize for not knowing that... I am also using a dart next block so I don’t even know if that has anything to do with what GEN the motor is.... again I don’t know Everything part of the reason I come on this form is to learn

You still are. To reiterate- LS7 is Gen IV. You are STILL in a GEN V forum. Can't put it much plainer than that. No sarcasm here, just stating facts.

Nobody is pissed off, those guys are just busting *****. Your engine build questions should be directed to Gen4 Internal section. For your turbo related questions, use the Forced Induction section of the forum. I’d love to watch all of this come together, so hopefully you’ll start a build thread over in the Conversions And Hybrids section of the forum. I have a custom built chassis under my Chevelle, but I started with a GM frame and did it myself. It’s a coil-over car as well. You can’t get any better than a RoadsterShop chassis. Roger knows his stuff, and that’s the finest piece around. Love those guys!
