Yes, I believe the L76 has the bottom end of an LS2 with a baby cam for the AFM to work properly and LS3 heads on top. Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

You are correct. L92 heads and L76/LS3 intake on top of essentially an LS2-esque block with DOD valvetrain.

Great looking car! My wife LOVES hers, especially the red leather. On a black car just gives is a little extra pop. The car knocked down 24mpg coming back home when we picked it up. Its been getting 18 around town since then. Havent taken any long highway trips since coming home. Great choice, and good solid mods. I hope to do some PCM work on down the road..
