That's pretty cool. But I notice they're too embarrassed to say the price.

Honestly you can put some Tony Mamo Trick Flow heads on the LS7 and have a much fatter torque curve in the low and mid-range and still make over 700 HP. It's not cheap though.... and Tony doesn't advertise his prices either!

Anybody remember the old Coates rotary valve heads? Talk about badass street engines. Too bad they didn't have a better business philosophy or we maybe could have had one.

That's actually not as bad as I thought. My 377 with Mamo parts cost as much as a new sedan.
