Chevy LS7 7.0L - NO ECM and Wire Harness

LS7 engines need no introduction. When the 2006 Vette showed up, it could hit 60 mph in 3.5 seconds and top out at 198 mph. This was made possible by a technically superior LS7 engine. The LS7 is a massive 7.0 liter small block engine. The LS7 uses a 7.0-liter aluminum dry-sump block, CNC-ported cylinder heads and titanium rods and valves to pump out 505 hp and 470 lb.-ft. of torque. Add an LS7 to your older Vette for over 500 horsepower and hang on fun!
