I think you Silverado would thank you for it!!!!

BTW, that sounds like a hell of a deal for that package. Will that include the oil sump set up too? Wouldn't want that set up to run low on oil. From what i have seen thus far, that is cheap. What is the mileage and what trans are you going to mate to it?

I'd like to know what the hell is going back into the Z06 if that's what is coming out of it!

Sounds like you got a good deal... as long as the motor is low miles and is healthy. I wouldn't run it with too much boost until you can get some forged pistons in it.

How are you going to control the transmission? Or will the truck be a manual? What about the dash?

I dunno. It's a deal and all. but you still need a tranny.
I'd think you can build a TT6.0 plus a built trans for that and come out with more HP.

But just opening the hood on a silverado and seeing an LS7 is cool in itself. If you do it try to find out why they are selling it. If it's wrecked, see how it got wrecked.

your call. But tac on another 2500 for a 4l80e

I'd say do it! But just remember the LS7 cannot handle alot of boost so don't get too excited and start over boosting it or you'll be sorry.

I think it's a good deal considering the engine alone costs $14,000 from GM
