lightweight petrol power

This would give a v24 a bit of kick

We've been running the LS engines here in New Zealand coupled to jets for quite some time now. The most popular of late is the LS364 that we are marinising for our boats, basically an LS2 without the injection and with a carburettor, making 440hp on pump gas and out of the box. Am chaffing at the bit to get my hands on the new LS3 derived engines, namely the LS376/515, same deal without injection which is replaced by a carb, but this one makes 515hp out of the box, on pump gas and GM is offering a 24 month warranty (we are working through the red tape for the marine aspect)
