ls7,. ull pay a ton of money to get 100 more ponies than the ls2, but its a bad bitch and itll be interesting for sure. ls2's can be had for a LOT less but then again they arent nearly the motor the ls7 is(although not a bad alternative for the price).
LS7's are hard to find used. Unless you just have a shit load of money to throw around, IMO it would be better to build a 408 and save. No doub't that the bragging rights would be cool though!

All forged 370 - 408, more hp less $. I am doing a 370 low comp. for the turbo. Should be pushing about 600 hp at the wheels. you can build a 6.0L to have 500 hp and still be a daily driver for a lot less money, but the ls7's are bad ass motors. kind of a mini rat motor.

Everyone and their brother are selling LS7s now for $12999. I wonder how much you can get one from a bone yard. You know those things are hitting the wrecking yards since so many people buy Z06s but can't drive for shyte.

LS7 Colorado swap... Not bad, but does the Colorado have the same after market support as the S10 (i.e. brake options) ?
