Could say the oiling system and head design are "outdated" by the LS7 I guess is what the dude was trying to say. You can fit a whole lot underneath the hood, or out back. HMT STS kit wouldn't be hard to piece together for under $2,500. So $15,000 for a 450-500whp machine isn't too bad. But I say buy it and spray the bitch. www.ls1tech.com is a decent info source

Oh and the guy wants $12,500 for the car. I just wanted to see what the ballpark was

so any car witout a dry sump system is outdated 8) i get it

Think that's the point the CRXmatt guy was making. Can't really see what else is outdated, so I figure that had to be it? When you gonna boost/spray your thing?

Since I have a nitrous kit now I'd just take it off my Mustang and put it on that. Just up the shot to a 150. So I'll spray it until I boost it. I would be disappointed that I never did get to turbo the Mustang

300 hit of spray is going to overcome the stock shortblock after a short amount of time. Safest is a 150 shot, and it will hold that all day. I'd go dry and just descreen the air sensor. Lot of the vendors over on LS1tech have some good advice on what to run spray wise.
