The LS7 454 big block was the biggest engine GM produced one up from the famed LS6 and was destined for the 72 Chevelles but gas crunch in the mid 70s canned that plan. The LS7s, rated at 540hp never went into production cars. The top was made by a friend of mine, hated the look of the factory ones.
Does real good in dogfights!!

Wow, the old brain is still somewhat functional, I was close on the engine. I have owned many a car in my youth with a Muncie transmission, they're about the best shifting 4 speeds that I've ever driven. Honestly, given my penchant for accurate repicas I can't believe I find myself saying this, but this is a REALLY cool car! It's got a great look, and a great stance - it looks really neat and likely goes like stink. Is it a coilover or torsion bar front suspension? Good luck with the sale.
