Come on, there where no LS7:s originally mounted in the Corvette (even though Chevrolet did their best with a massive advertising). They were far to exepensive. Any LS7 Corvette is an aftermarket production. ;-)

Here you go sneak peak in time for spring break.

Looks like 5mm is the best size for a single jet. I will probably take that to about 5.5-6to account for the extra restriction of the block.

Ls7, looking good. when do you expect to have a copper one casted? or even aluminum?

About the jet, you want the available waterflow going through the jet restricted slightly more than the restriction in the block, that way you still actually get a jet, water isnt like air so it wont be moving at a higher velocity than it can be removed.

Hopefully next week I will have alum casted. I would like to get some testing done on those and see if a silver version is worth the money and effort.
