Let's see add 100 lbs, gain 500 hp. You'd be hard pressed to find a better tradeoff anywhere...

Maxton sounds good for this type of build. This setup would also be nice in a car running the Silver State Classic...

Just curious Tom... I know you sold three. Are there more available, or no?

I am sure you could get one. Tom needed a minimum of 3, but I do believe he ordered enough for 5. PM him on here. Most days, it is impossible to get to him by phone. PM me if you can't get a hold of him.

I heard that before too. BS? Idk, some guy said they didn't hold boost as well.

The sleeves of the LS7 block take out so much material out of the block itself. GM even says the LS7 is not deigned to handle boost which is why they put a blown LS3 under the hood of the ZR1. They added some more doodads and changed a couple more parts and called it an LS9. It's a fancied up LS3 at it's core though. The ZR1 is only running 10 psi too and GM wouldn't let the LS7 be used because of long term durability.
