Glad to see they are still dedicated to the V8 for the forseeable future, cant wait to see some details on the next generation!

I'd like to see the same basic arcitecture of the LS but with the standard bore spacing and a larger one (ie. bigblock). How sweet would it be to have a 572ci. LS based motor?!?! Also a better sump area to help with windage problems...

Me too but I could also see things going a little bit the other way and the largest (factory/OEM) LSx motor being only 5.5L in size but still making 6.2L LS3 type power hopefully (Direct Injection etc.).

I may shed a tear at the thought of that gleeful news

As long as the engine remains OHV, is bigger than competitors with more usable power, and mods are wallet and horsepower friendly...GM can do whatever they want to the SBC. I have complete faith.

cant wait for these bad boys to start rolling out....too bad it will be a while.

i see a smaller dispalcement yet slight gains in the LSx future. any guesses on name? only 5 and 8 are left in numbers. more letters now?

iirc the gen v supposed to be di 3v ohv ls engines.
i can only imagine what the new breed of the ls engines heads will flow with 2 intake valves and di technology. we may see the day of 500+hp 5.3 n/a motors with those new heads

Maybe they'll start over and call the newest version an ....LS1

DI, aluminum everything, baller 3V heads.... I can't wait.

I don't care what anyone says, GM builds the best V8 bar-none. Simple, efficient, and easy to MOD!

maybe they will call it the LDX series LDX1 Ldx2 etc etc

I'd go for that, it is the one that started it all.

I've been waiting for this news! Smart move in the right direction GM. I'm anxious to see the economy ratings of smaller displacements with this technology in a car with a six speed manual. Low 30s here we come! Throw in forced induction in the next generation of performance cars and who knows what is possible. Grand National? Smaller Vette rocket?

OHV is a very important aspect to maintain. GM has done wonders with the old, simple pushrod arrangement, I hope it stays that way. There is no need to complicate things with a multi-cam arrangement V8, Ford has already proven that this style will never be superior to a well designed OHV V8 engine.

I remember someone here recently posting a pic of a Nissan 3.5L V6 next to an LSx motor, the LSx looked so tiny and compact while the 3.5L looked like a 426 Hemi. Reduced external engine dementions are another big advantage of an OHV setup.

oh no. guess what the ls1 will become. it will replace what the lt1 is now. now all you ******** can find out how it feels to be **** on for having an older motor. hahahah
