I don't know if the cars had mods or what. Just that it IS a C6 vette in that video. I also read up on some info about the 2006/7 Corvette Z06!

the ls2 block itself is 15 pounds lighter then the ls1 block. which in MO is pretty cool because block weight is something most everyone has to deal with. its not like you can just change the weight of the block, and 15 pounds seems like a good chunk.
as for other things the intake is pretty big, some are saying as big as the FAST LSX intakes. they come with a 90mm throttle body too. there is a guy on ls1tech.com that has done a swap to a ls1 motor with this intake and tb setup, lots of fabrication to be done to get everything flush and fit. not worth it to me since you can port the fast intake and it has nitrous back fire plates.
the ignition is a coil on plug deseign, so that means NO spark plug wires. you get the best spark this way so most fuel ignites with little emissions. emissions are awesome on the new motor.
they are putting it in everything from SSR to GTO to Corvette. I think the CTSV is getting it to, but not sure if its waiting for the LS7 or not.
the only thing i know about the ls7 motor is that its suppose to be a 6.4 liter and have close to 500 horses. everyone is saying 485 and in a few years they will hit the 500 mark. like they did with the ls6 in 2002.... went from 385 to 405 horses. or what they did with the ZR1 motor after a few years....same basis only alot more ponies!!
