Has anyone actually bought one of these?
I can't even find a working part number for the deluxe version.

LSX454
The new LSX454 crate engine (part number 19166972) revives a classic Chevy engine designation and brings it to the LSX engine family. It uses the LSX Bowtie block, along with an all-forged, super-tough rotating assembly and a pair of GMPP's new, deep-breathing LSX six-bolt cylinder heads. It is topped with a high-rise intake manifold and four-barrel carburetor.

The new LSX six-bolt cylinder heads are based on the racing-derived LS7 heads that help deliver more than 500 horsepower in the Corvette Z06. They enable tremendous low-end torque and great high-rpm power. The LSX454 is rated at 620 horsepower and 600 lb.-ft. of torque.

The LSX454 is delivered in Deluxe form, so it includes everything from the carburetor to the water pump. It also comes dressed with great-looking, all-new orange powder-coated valve covers with "LSX454" logos engraved and painted black.

This is all I can find:

LSX454 Crate Engine MSRP
$11,625.00
Part # 19244611,One of the most legendary engines in muscle car history is the Chevy 454 Big-Block.

With the LSX Bowtie block, GM Performance Parts engineers were able to build a 21st century 454 with the latest technology – and it requires no more space under the hood than a production LS engine.

It's perfect as the power plant for a late-model Camaro drag car or a high-tech retro-fit for a '70 Chevelle pro-touring machine.

The LSX454 is filled with an all-forged, super-tough rotating assembly and features a pair of our new, deep-breathing LSX six-bolt cylinder heads.
It also comes dressed with great-looking, all-new orange powder-coated valve covers with engraved "LSX454" logos.

GMPP delivers the LSX454 without an intake manifold and other accessories.

With a carburetor and high-flow GM Performance Parts intake manifold, the LSX454 is good for about 620 horsepower and 600 lb-ft of torque —or about 580 hp and 600 lb-ft. with fuel injection.

NOTE: Due to the number of application variations, the LSX454 crate engine does not include an oil pan. See the LS Engine Components section for production-style oil pan choices.
Also, the LSX454 valve covers do not include provisions for mounting the ignition coil brackets. Aftermarket or custom relocation brackets must be sourced.

What happened to the deluxe ready to go 24 month warrantee 620 hp engine they touted so proudly a year ago?
 
NOW I don't feel so bad about the traditional Tonawanda BBC being cancelled...
