    Meh...I think the casing looks retarded...I'd rather have the traditional looking double hump twin screw look under my hood.

    Wonder why it's only for the LS3. Are the head ports different on the LS3 than any other LSx?

    they will bolt on but they recommend you have a 4 inch bore at least with the bigger heads and you will have to have a ls3 style intake

    So the point is, that if I had a money tree growing in my back yard, I can get the SC and some nice Bored-out LS3 Heads, it would bolt right on?

    Ya the LS3/L92 heads have larger valves too, the valves will not clear the bore, You will have piston wall to valve clearance issues, you must have a 4in bore or larger for these heads. MAST motorsports makes a small valve L92/LS3 head specifically for the LS1. But I believe you'll still have to run a L76/LS3 intake unless you're running a S/C.

    so a pair of heads $2000, and the LS9 SC around $7000?

    worth it? maybe not.

    or you could run the l92 heads which are cheap

    but you would still need at least a 4" bore for the bigger valves to clear


    what would make it worth it is if that blower can put out as much as say my D1sc can but you would also be able to run the factory radiator and fans which become a big issue with forced induc. setups

    the roots style blower puts out almost turbo like torque with an easy bolt on setup (even easier than the procharger)


    bad side is the intercooler for those things usually suck and they put out a lot of heat

    no you could however go get you an lq9 motor and bolt it right on

    but either way you still have all the bullshit that comes with a forced induc. car

    better fuel supply,drivetrain,tuning,and all the other little nickel and dime shit that adds up quick trust me

    Don't get me wrong, it's pretty cool, but I agree with ls1camino, I'm not a fan of the casing at all. I would much rather have a twin screw in it's place.

    I'd also be curious as to how much this one would cost versus some of the more common kits that you see on the LS2's/LS3's such as Magnuson, Callaway etc.
