It's an LS2 engine block with L92 heads,LS3 intake and LS7 injectors......that combo is called L76.

It has Active Fuel Management (Displacement on Demand).
It has 8x collapsible lifters and 8x normal lifters and a small lift (less than .500") camshaft.
The camshaft has different profiles on the 4x DOD cylinders than the normal 4.
It does not have VVT (variable valve timing).


Not to be confused with the L76 Vortec truck engine which is different again.
