Between these and the GN's you would think GM would have put this technology in the Vette's years ago, Sucks that the Grand Nationals performance was too much for its own good and was beating up on the Vette's at the time and you know GM can't have anything beating their Pride and Joy

why were the syclones and typhoons and GNs excellent performers but GMs full size BB truck was a slug back then?

My guess is cause those v6s respond to boost so well, I've heard some guys can run up to 30lbs of boost stock before having to mess with internals.

Good comparison with a fully dressed 4.6 and a bare LS

It's almost like you don't like mod motors or something, can't really tell

Take a magic marker and draw a alt, ps pump and a ewp on the ls7 if it makes you happy. Still no where near the size of the modular. Those items have nothing to do with the width and height.

You're right.....you still need to add a pump, lines and heat exchanger to the 4.6.

Both have ac also.

Like I said none of that matters to the width and height.

The height isn't really much different, it's the width that's the main difference.
