LS7s do have a reputation for some reliability problems, there were rocker arm failures in 2007 build motors and it seems there were some mis machined rocker mounting pads on some motors. GM has a warranty check for excessive valve guide clearances and my buddies machine shop has done 4 sets of LS7 heads in the past year and a half for the Chevy dealer. Nothing wrong with the output of a stock LS7! Check the C6 Z06 section of The Corvette Forum for LS7 technical information.

The dry sump unfortunately is not just a simple 2 hose system, for starters the corvette pan will not fit "Most" chassis it mat fit the OP Morrison I am not sure. the tank does not fit the Camaro with out major modifications Speedtech sells a drysump pan and retrofit tank that will fit the Camaros we can also supply the fitting and hose list required to do the swap
