Nice, an LS7... That's the very latest Corvette Z06 motor with titanium rods, a dry sump oiling system and just about every other race-bred gadget that a high buck sportscar should have. Not like the $50.00 6-bolt shortblock that I can yank from the u-pull-it around here that was produced in early '90 which as I mentioned earlier has had no problems holding 500 - 600whp stock! This was on a motor that laid down about 160ish whp when it rolled off the assembly line mind you. 
I'm not totally ignorant about what's built here in the states

my lt1 makes over 500hp at the crank and has 120k miles on it, I mean shit it's some pos aswell

I remember an a pilar hanging down, spider webs, and a missing door handle on the inside 
I could've sworn I had to reach outside the car to get out

then your water pump leaks, fries the opti, and your out another day and half worth of labor and however much it costs to replace it
btw, the only interior pieces my car was missing was a radio
now lets see...some things that caught my eye...a cam swap in a 4 cyl can yeild anything from a 10 whp gain to over 100 whp gain depending on your setup, a stock car would have little to gain...but a fully setup car going from stock cams to aftermarket cams will see a HUGE benefit

throw a cam in an stock LT1/LS1 and throw 2 cams (shit 2 of em that's even better than 1
) in a stock 1G/2G eclipse and see which car drops a full second of it's EToh well like I keep saying I gotta plenty of love for the 4 cylinders, I just love argueing lol

yeah but that's in a scenario where the cams are the only thing unmodded and are restrictive to the rest of the setup
throw a cam in an stock LT1/LS1 and throw 2 cams (shit 2 of em that's even better than 1) in a stock 1G/2G eclipse and see which car drops a full second of it's ET

Just zip-tie the timing belt to the cam gears, keep the CAS installed and don't let it spin, and drop in the cams. Bolt shit up and run it. It can be done very quickly once you've done a few.
Though I'll admit, 400+ whp off i/h/e+cam like in a LS1 is pretty sweet.
