!!!WOW!!!

Me and a buddy of mine where looking for engines for his Nova and came across this. I jokingly said lets put it in the LUV, then his mind started spitting out all sorts of stuff he could do to the truck. So just incase I run across a winning lotto ticket. Do you guys think it will fit?
You know just champaign dreams on a beer budget.

if you guys get a chance check out the specs on the LS7 motor. factory CNC ported heads that flow 345cfm @.700" 28" H20!. cam is somewhere in the neighborhood of .590"I/.600"E or something like that. there is a LOT of potential for these motors.

Not bad for a factory motor eh?

However if 500hp is all you're looking for, you can buy or build 2 500hp 383's for the same cost as one of those crate LS7's
