True. This is starting to remind me of the old SNL news that would start out "Francisco Franco is still dead."

I don't think Kaboom is going to give up on the LS7 anytime soon.

The LS7 was built in Wixom..it was shipped as a complete engine to Bowling Green.

The LS series of motors is NOT currently going into serial production cars...and the motors that are being made are crate engines and warranty replacements..

The LS7 was and is a great motor, but it's time is past now.

LS7 for the Z/28 was also built in the Performance Build Center at Bowling Green, was told this while taking the plant tour during the fest.

Don't forget the Zora will be here soon, and it's supposed to be a stand alone model for a few years.
