Default Dart LS7's

Anyone else plan on making the jump? Being introduced at PRI. If these are anything like their LS3's they will be strong contenders if not the ones to have. From what understand, Dart's out of the box machine work (cnc accuracy and valve jobs) can't be touched by anyone out there really. Keeping my eye on these, hopefully they'e priced well!

From the pictures, doesn't look like stock rocker setup. Maybe it comes with rails that bolt on.

I saw that, I assumed it'd be a bolt on billet rail, maybe not. I would be fine with mamos rockers w/ 10mm hardware.

Interesting...it does say it retains stock valvetrain mounting, so I would think it comes with a rail as well. Wonder what sort of valves are used.

Another wild card lol hopefully they'll give full details soon. I would be fine with some Ferrea hollow stem SS intakes and solid exhausts. I don't need Ti. Nor does the majority, imo.

IMO, anyone spending big money on heads like this, will spec out exactly what they want. So what valves they are available with is almost a non-issue, as they are available bare so your head person can fit valves of your choice to them along with the proper springs, set height, etc etc etc.

When they post flow numbers and/or dyno results it'll get a lot more interesting. I'm sure the potential is there but there's just not much to go on yet.

Also, Texas speed plans on releasing their OEM based roller tipped rocker for LS7 stuff in the next couple months.
