All stock LS7's will blow up with forced induction. It's only a matter of when and it will happen sooner than later. Rebuilding will cost you atleast $10,000.

The stock LS9 will run 100k miles with no problem.

A blown Z06 is fine for a weekend car but hard use will kill the engine and unsuitable for a high use car.
