This may be what the doctor ordered.
C7 Manta Ray with an LS 32 valve. Im getting chills just thinking about it.

Very interesting and BIG news for sure. The DOHC motorboat engine rises again.

I have always wanted a reason to buy a C5 FRC, Looks like Mercury just gave a reason. 2004 Z06/ZR-1 Commemorative edition.

Better yet, a C6Z06 with these heads.

I had the commemorative edition z06, great car. An LS6 with these heads would be a beast!

I'm not sure it would fit the engine compartment. It is now as wide as an LT5. But, if it does it would be awesome.
