I believe that if you read the fine print, that doesn't include the dry sump oil system, which really puts you in a tight spot. Now you either have to mod your car to accept the dry sump system and buy the dry sump system, or you have to adapt the LS7 to work without one, which I've never seen done before. Either way, it's not going to be cheap.

Another thing that the LSA has over the LS7 is about 80 Lbs Ft of torque.

Don't get me wrong, I love the LS7! It's a great engine! If they put one in the Z28, it would be cool, but I'd still buy a ZL1.
