      Only thing is see better is their ls-2

      seems like a great deal.. for $2400 more you can get the ls-2 which is (at the fly wheel) 510hp and 480 ft/lbs.. so it's $24 a hp... i'm not sure with bolt on you could get that HP and torque out of an LS-1 for less then $2400.. the afr or CNC heads alone would set you back close to that..but i'm not sure..maybe you could

      The upgrade is a great deal. The AFR heads are $1500 alone.

      a while back i added up parts on building new ls1 & turnkey was $1400 cheaper than what it would cost to build. on the ls2, they were a couple of hundred $'s more, but the hp on their ls2 was really bumped up.

      What is the word on their LS-2 510/480 motor? What did they do? I picked up a handout at a show and under features it lists a performance cam and manual 90mm TB. I assume those numbers are w/out an exhaust. I wish they put a graph in the handout or on the website so I could see what the numbers are from 2,500 to 6,800. Would an aggressive cam put up 110/80 over stock?Or is the big increase over stock due to no emissions/ or restrictive exhaust? I wonder if their is some head/ valve work that is unlisted?

      Just click on that link above here and scroll down to the second picture. There's a supercharged LS2.
      As stated earlier our prices are competetive with all the other's.
      If you're ready to order, call me at 815-455-2230 or email [email protected] for an exact quote. I don't have time to check these forums much.
      thanks
