Is there an option to purchase the LS9 w/out the supercharger? Probably not, but I had to ask.

I have not tried to buy a LS9 with or without a blower. But the dealers cannot get LS7s.

A bone stock LS7 would be nice, but a L92 with a cam will make 540 in a blink and save nearly 5K by the time you factor in the cost of a dry sump system for the LS7.

But the dry sump is a cool option for a road race Corvair............

Sorry this is off topic, but does anyone know if this is true that GM performance parts is closed and no longer in production?

I had plans for a crate engine but have yet to secure the funds. I also didn't want to eat up all of my warranty time on an engine stand...
