Next question will a T56 hold up to 800hp ? reliably....? from what ive been told they can handle about 600hp... after that good luck...Whats the gearbox in the corvette that has the ls7 in it ..? That would have to be pretty strong..

Great info... thankyou for that...I will keep posting ive had my zed for over 10 years it was my first baby... Then through the years of taking it off the road and working on her,and with my utes that ive had the old girl has sat there year after year and now coming up in 2013 its time for her comeback... Big Time....

Im pretty sure you guys can import our top of the range ute the Holden Maloo 6sp ls3 ... There just under $80,000 with leather and all the trimmings.....I had one for about 6 months before the home loan became more important...Sold it for $72,000 Wasnt the best 8k ive lost but damn it was great to drive .....

roger280zx Thanks mate ...,I checked up on the pans and while the ls7 has a different pan than the others in the u.s... the best part about getting a Holden ls1 2 or 3 that i know ( Holden is australia's version of the chevy)is that they come with a smaller pan or something like that... I know the pan is different to that of an american ls series and from a american guy that has done the ls1 z32 conversion,he said he ordered a holden pan and it fixed the pan issue ... so i should be sweet in that aspect.. Thanks for your help.... (Sorry i should clarify that Holden is the aussie sector of your GM )

Mike kZ....... You just made my day that's awesome news... just have to weigh up between ls3 or ls7?... ls3 with t56 i can get here for $10k for a new ls7 Good luck finding a second hand one in australia... i would have to drop 25k then gear box then turbo charging somehow that ls3 looking mighty fine... One way or the other is gotta be done..... My ls2 ute goes sweet as with a few little mods only prob is it weighs 1900kg and it still eats most cars with 300kw at the wheels..My Zed my is down to a trim 1345kg so that should fly....Thanks for your help...

hey..got a question.. I have decided to change my vg30dett for a ls series engine... My question is if a ls1 can be made to fit in a z32 will a ls3 or a ls7 also fit... Are the ls series engines the same overall size as in diamensions...?? And does anyone know if there is any room left over for a Turbo/Supercharger...? I have spent a shitload on this car already so if i can im sticking a ls7 twin turbo in her.... Any help with this would be greatly appreciated....
