They look heavy. I still don't understand why, when you can buy LS7 done for under 2 grand

Why not just buy an LT5? Then you have something that will hold it's value and you don't have to worry about pushrods.

No you just have to worry about hard to find expensive parts and TONS of valve train components.
I would rather bend a cheap pushrod that have a problem with the complex cam/valve train in a LT5 head.

So would I, but I can't imagine a one off head being easier than either.
Sounds more like the worst of both.

Looks like something for those folks that like technology for the sake of technology.

I am surprised that somebody has yet to call
. Looks like a bit more than bolt on.

Waste of engineering... more parts, more complexity, more cost.

don't be too quick to poo-poo these things just yet. They may prove to have a worthy application. I'm glad to see someone putting forth this effort to try something like this, but I'm a gearhead to the bone anyway.
