I'm having a 442ci LS-7 built right now. It should make about 700+hp. It was going to go in my C4 but I just picked up a 99 Fixed Roof Coupe to make into my new track car. I am having my Corvette shop owner/mechanic/road racer buddy do the instal for me. So far he has put a LS-7 in a C5Z06 and a F1 Supercharged+Nitrous LS-7 into a Convertible C5...that car is over the 1000hp mark. He currently is building 2 442ci LS-7's for me and another guy. I have the FRC and the other guy has a C5Z06. He's a VERY good mechanic/tuner and has VERY resonable prices too. I will make a thread about my car's progress as work gets done on it but right now I am in Iraq and also waiting for a few new products to get developed...
