if you didn't notice, i quoted that from hot rod magazine... take it as you want...

 

So which one of these quotes was from the Hot Rod article?

 

the second one..

 

It's not in quotes with the rest of the post. Sure it's from the September HotRod? Because it looks like a direct C&P from here.

i began it with the quote mark (") but forgot to end it with the quote mark... i don't see how the quote is false nontheless....

 

No you didn't. The part that is a quote from a magazine is completely contained with quotes. You pretty much copy/pasted from the ls1.com thread.

You don't see how comparing the (wrong) price of one assembled head to a pair of aftermarket heads is false?

 

which was quoted from the magazine... it doesn't matter how many forums something was quoted from, if it's a quote, then it's a damn quote....


again.. ls7 heads assembled (valves and retainers as you have proven) are only $1400.... another set of heads that flow almost as well for much less $$$... you pick whichever ones you want.... they both CAN work on a ls1...

i'm not sure how much more you can nit pick at my statements.. but just to let you know, i'm not gonna respond again... enjoy your day

 

Are you really that dumb? Do you not understand what quotation marks mean? That first part is a quote from the magazine. Everything after that is some other guy's opinion.
That's ~$1400 per head you numbskull. And that's before S&H. So you're looking at more than $3k for the pair delivered. It's really not a tough concept.

And as I pointed out before LS7 heads will do you no good on an LS1, LS2, or LS6 motor because of the bore.

That depends on how many more dumb statements you're going to make.

Good. The rest of us won't be plagued by your misinformation then.

 

A pair of bare LS7 heads (PN 12578450) alone will set you back about $1,850 before tax and shipping...

There's more to cylinder heads than flow numbers...

A sleeved LS1 with a 4.100+ bore, at any rate...

Until you start speaking from experience instead of regurgitating what you read (or thought you read) somewhere else...

 

Hinson's engine cradle uses the Camaro "clamshell" motor mounts which bolt directly to the LSx block. Granny's engine cradle requires a set of SBC mount adapters (which he now supplies, apparently), and a set of Energy Suspension low-profile SBC motor mounts. Of course, his cradle also mounts the engine too high to clear the hood because it was intended for an LT1.

Hinson's cradle requires that you send your own cradle as a core (or pay for one of his) because all he's doing is hacking out the center section and welding in a few cross-pieces, Pettit-style. Grant's cradle is a complete replacement, including new mounting points for the lower control arms, but the rear mounts are only attached with light boxed tubing which allows them to flex under load.
