Default Re: GM crate LS7 454 specs & price

The LS7 motors were really something...lots of guys used them back in the day as an instant 11 to 10 second bolt on[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]

I would look at what it would cost to gather the correct parts and build from scratch...then compare that to the asking price. If you buy a never run motor...you still may want to check things out before turning the key [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

***Chevy specs called for aluminum heads initially on these motors...I believe all the over the counter versions had iron heads. This was basically a larger displacement L-88 with a better cam. It had to make way north of 500hp...40 years later and we are still talking about them...good stuff never goes out of style [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
