I am on L1 and my 7 years are up in 12/2007. Is it still possible for me to change status to H1 and stay for another 6 years in US?

Or, do the 7 years of L1 also use up the 6 years that could have been available on H1?

Not possible, you have to stay outside US for 1 year to come back either on L1 or H1 or any other EB visa
