Mike, That would be an LS2. Makes 400HP and 400 lbs. of torque in stock
form. 500 HP is easy to come by for about two grand extra. I have a drop out
from an 05 GTO with T56 on my shop floor. It's going in my 65 Elky. And it
won't be stock. This engine can also be found in 04/06 Corvettes. GM Perf.
has it as a crate engine as well and now has a carburated version called the
LS364. Makes an easy conversion in older cars like ours and produces 440HP
out of the box. Anyone going to SEMA look at the 67 Chevelle in the Hotchkis
booth that Terry Stevens just completed. It has the LS 364 and is very
nicely done.

I do not think you will have a problem finding a LS7
and trans at all. The setup from the new GTO with
cabling,computer and fuel pump was on ebay for 6000$.
Nice setup. I told my friend that has a basket case
orange "Judge" to do that and keep the old school
stuff for the next guy.

Currently I have a .030 over 427 big block (1973 454

Richmond 5 speed in my 65
SS. It runs great, has gobs of HP, sounds BAD, and
gets 10 mpg with an
egg under my foot. My plan is remove the BB and
trans, and replace it
with a used LS7 with a manual trans. I know finding
a n LS7 will be
tough, but if I can the set-up will be awesome. A
great driver, good
mileage, and more power than my BB.
What do you guys think? Seen any in the junk yards?
Cost?
