Default 442 Ls 7
I just installed my new 442, LS7 I purchased from A&A Corvettes. I love my new motor!!! Andy picked the cam and it rumbles a bit but the car flat out runs. It made 549 rwhp w/ the stock LS1 75mm MAF! Thanks Andy!!

That's awesome! It should be nice knowing that you can upgrade a few things and easily make 600+rwhp on motor too! I'll bet there's gonna be a few people pull up on you to try you on for size that get a big surprise!!
