We'll be putting CTS-V Hydraulic lifters and All Pro Retro Fit LS7 six-bolt heads on my 427 LSX.

Ive just heard of some bad issues with the LSX block and them spinning lifters with the buckets they come with. A lot of shops recommend going to a link bar with the LSX.

Just noticed the shelf kit uses stock manifolds, I assume you are having them fabricate custom headers for the kit?

Thanks

No. I am putting stock manifolds back in the car.

I sold my LT headers. I must admit that was one of the biggest factors that had me on the fence about doing this project. I loved the sound of those LT headers.
