I think the L92 should have been included in the poll. Because it was not, I did not vote. JB

The L92 stock is just a Truck Engine..how do you see it as performance unless you start switching parts around?

He was asking potentialwise. Don't ls1 and ls6 have the same potential? LS1 being cheaper wouldn't that make more sense?

Silly, don't you know anything about fuel economy?

even funnier is that the LS2 is better at that too.

LS2 for stock power.

LS1 sleeved and stroked out to 427ci. It keeps a semi-stock look under the hood but will twist the chassis when the gas is mashed.
