powerplant of 08 G8 GT ???

Just bought an 08 G8 GT with 6k miles on it. Does this car have the LS2 in it or the L76? Or is the motor similar to a LS2 or equialent LSx motor? Just inquiring about it. Thanks.

It's an L76.

Think of it as an LS2 block, with LS3 top end, and DOD-cam/valvetrain. We fool around and call it an LS2.5

So you bought the car without knowing what engine it had?
