Get sick of the 4.8 being such a dog out of boost?

That, and I never planned on it being a permanent engine. To be honest though, it takes an 80mph roll to not experience lag... 60mph still has lag

Turns out Bob, the guy who drives that slammed 240 who was operating the gopro, was pushing the wrong button so nothing recorded lol. I will post up any phone videos I can find though, several different people got video.

Then 40 roll only seconds later. IATs were still above 100 so I was slow this run. Started to pull him back in once it spooled and got through 3rd gear but we were already doing 145

The parts catolog here at work list it as a LZ1

I've never even heard of that. The engine is a 2007 I believe, according to the code on the block.

I think it is a combo only used in the Hybrids. The block maybe a hold over from the reg LS2 if it truely came out of a Hybrid Escalade it was built some time in 08 at the earliest.
