I have been driving my vette on the stock block for years without any issues. I figured it was finally time to upgrade to a forged engine. I knew that if I forged my stock block I would always want more displacement. In the end I decided on an LS7 427 for the build.

Here is a list of the major parts for the new project;

-A&A forged LS7 with Patriot Heads running 9.2 to 1
-Comp Cams 232/240 LSA 11
-A&A newest YSi SC kit with 3” pulley
-8 rib setup
-Tial BOV
-DeWitts radiator (2 inch shorter made for SC clearance)
-American Racing 1 7/8 headers
-RPM SFI flexplate
-3 Bar sensor for new tune

Carry over Parts;

-RPM Level VI Tranny
-DTE Stage 4 3.42s
-Vigilante 2600
-ECS fuel system
-Alky Control dual nozzle meth

YSi vs S-Trim





LGM 1 3/4 headers vs American Racing 1 7/8



DeWitts shortened radiator vs Stock

LS1 vs Forged LS7
