    That's pretty over priced since it needs all the accessories, plus a loom, etc.

    pay another 2k and you can have an LS2.

    Would be wasting your money buying this POS.

    lol yeah a f*ck load easier. But the benefits of putting in an LS series cannot be matched.

    To put this in you just need to change torque convertor, suspension and brakes. If you want an L67 you're better off swapping up for a calais. A LS1 would be worth the effort because VS are light as vs later models.

    Calm down mate. For one, they see 20psi where? Cause they sure as hell don't see 20psi in the manifold.

    A 17psi pulley isn't 17psi in the manifold though. You will get alot more pressure loss with a PD then a turbo.
