Default LG Motorsports 8.0 Liter LS7 Package. Preliminary Dyno results 663/611!!




We finally hit the rollers today with our new 8.0Liter LS7 Package



LG Motorsports G8x4 ported heads
G8X4 cam
K&N Intake
Stock non ported Intake manifold and TB
8.0L endurance prepped shortblock
Prototype 2" Long tubes
Full 3" corsa catback
3.73 gears
Exedy Triple Carbon clutch

This thing is a monster! 500 rwtq from the hit at 3k! Talk about having your cake and eating it too! Making big power and retaining NICE drivability just became that much easier

I will update this thread as we progress, I expect in the next few days we will near 675 rwhp, and potentially more

Hey Louis,
What happened to your car at Long Beach. I saw it on fire, but never heard what started it (except speculation about the collision with the [whatever it was P1, P2]).

I would guess this thing has pretty beefy internals? What type of application is this motor aimed at, endurance races? This engine is frickin sick! waiting for a cost... =)

Louis will get back with you on the block that we used.

But I can say that having over 500 rwtq from 3000rpm up is the impressive part.

And hitting 663rwhp with 611rwtq is about as good as it gets with a N/A set up.

that comes out to about 775+ flywheel hp and aprox 715 flywheel torque

This is Mike Lancaster's car that is going to run on the road courses in Canada. I hope he has slicks

Thanks guys

And Thanks to my Son Louis for putting this package together.

We will get a video clip up on Monday. It is not as lumpy as you would think because of the 8 liter displacement.
