I agree there is not much of a market for the LS from engine builders like Raylar. The pricing just doesn't work out.

But for a DIY guy and the right boat, It could be a great combo, and cheap.

Ilmor on the other hand has something to prove. I love their V10's, and I'm sure their LSx Line will be great too. I hope they keep coming out...
