I looked @ LS7 and RAM, never looked @ SPEC, just too many horror stories. LS7 seems like its not worth it @ the power levels you're looking @ with that combo. RAM HD might do the trick, but you'll be stuck with your old flywheel, or buying a new FW. Monster has the full package, good to 700WHP, drives like a LS6 clutch and comes with a 1 year warranty against defect. Hard to complain about that!
