Posts: 124no they don’t run AFM, yes you can bolt a T56 straight up
as for cam options, they’re practically as limitless as any other LS engine.
It’s based on an LS3 but with a slightly stronger bottom end, which should make it more durable than an L98. The LSA has an Eaton 1.9 L supercharger, which obviously can be overdriven or you could change it out for any other LS3-based supercharger (which probably isn’t necessary unless you’re chasing mega HP).
On a side note, the LSA supercharger sticks out a bit, you’ll likely have a problem with hood clearance. You can change the supercharger top plate over to an LS9 unit which helps a little.
Also on the cost side, the LSA becomes even more cost effective when you consider that it usually comes with a clutch as a crate motor (if you’re going manual).

Posts: 775Hey Sands no, not on face book not a fan ,
budget wise I don’t have one im going to get what I would like and what the build cost is what it cost so if it’s 1 or 4 years building it is part of the enjoyment
but will be cheaper than the vk as I have already done things three or four times
