[Kid: Remember me - I'm the guy putting an LS7 in my SS - Well things are underway and I have a link with a few pictures to show you. The people helping me with this project are making a photo album for me (seeing I have no idea how to take pictures) and they sent me a few to look at.
With all the research I have been doing - it was determined that the block and head combination on an all out drag car (which this is not) could handle probably 1400 HP but of course with my weak tranny I am no where near going there. This will be a street driver with 650 WHP on the motor and with the Turbo with 2-5# of boost over 800 HP. And still I worry about the transmission. I have had special machined parts made to replace the junk steel parts in the trans to strengthen it and also treated other parts to hardened them to withstand the wear and tear that this trans will have and upgraded everything possible. Anyway take a look at the beginning, this link should keep you updated. Thanks for your time. Sam Buscemi - oh by the way - everything I don't use will be for sale. All the old 5.3 stuff.
