I haven't bothered yet. I'll check within a couple days myself and post back unless you beat me to it.

Re: L92 with L76 intake
I have an LS2 block and a set of bare L92 heads. Im just in the parts collecting phase right now but my plans, at this point, are to run a stock displacement LS2 with an LQ4 rotating assembly, GM head gaskets, and unmilled L92 heads. this will put my compression ratio at about 9.4:1. it'll be backed by a 4L80E and its all going to go in a 1991 mustang notchback that will be lightened and built for one thing, to go fast in a straight line. I got this crazy idea to run mid 11s on 87 pump gas. Im building it low compression also because in the future I want to run a D1SC procharger but I dont think I'll have the funds to get that any time soon. hell its gonna be tough for me to finish the car with what I have now.
so yeah, Im not building a stroker but I will be using the L92 heads and im waiting on that whole intake assembly from GM. the one with the L76 intake, fuel rails, injectors, 90mm throttle body, and gaskets for a little over $500. thats such a sweet deal. luckily im not in a rush though!
btw, for those that don't know, heres some specs:
flow numbers on a 4.030" bore fixture:
lift---intake exhaust
.100 75 64
.200 154 126
.300 225 162
.400 275 190
.500 309 206
.550 321 211
.600 329 215
.650 327 218
2.16" exhaust valve
1.59" intake valve
260-265cc intake runner volume
90cc exhaust runner volume
~70cc chamber volume

Re: L92 with L76 intake
The throttle body that comes with the intake is useless. My friend and I were talking about this last night.
The problems are:
1. None of our dealerships have L92 blocks, nor do they even know the pricing.
2. We are still waiting on the intake assembly.
3. The throttle body that comes with the intake is designed for electronic throttle control, not the cable style that we will need.
4. From what Scoggin-Dickey has been saying, they can barely keep the heads in stock.
I really don't expect much until after the holidays. Maybe I'll do a buildup next Spring or something. Basically GM still hasn't got the ball rolling very well on the L92, L76 stuff.

Re: L92 with L76 intake
Blocks are about $300 higher than a LS2.
Yep, I'm waiting for GM to get the intake out.
Katech used a UMI Throttle Body on their 427 F-body build. I'll probably do the same.
At about $900 a set assembled, no wonder they are hard to keep in stock.

Re: L92 with L76 intake
yeah, I figured it would be a drive by wire tb.
what I find interesting about the heads...
.400 275 190
those flow numbers are just a tad higher than what my LE3 heads flowed at .600" lift! these heads kick some ***. Im really contemplating sending mine to lloyd to see what kind of magic he can work on them!

Re: L92 with L76 intake
If/when I decide to build one of these setups, I'm definitely going to have some porting done to the heads. At least on the exhaust side anyway. I would like to see what Lloyd can do with those heads.
