Thread coulda ended after the LT5 was mentioned.
I think 95 was the last year for those engines. Given how much bigger the LS has grown and with that kinda power that long ago with those heads, the cars today would be making stupid power.

Mike Moran was running 6.8's in 2006, the car that did 6.73 used a cathedral port head. While engine design can play a role in who is competitive, rules/restrictions play an equal part in that equation. Rules have made classes that flourished dry up over night in an effort to keep it "competitive".

It’s been 15 years. How well has that worked out for GM and the LS platform?
Quickest Ford modular powered Vehicle in the ¼ mile 6.083 @ 236
Quickest GM LS powered vehicle in the ¼ mile 6.73 @ 206
There are 5 Modular powered vehicles quicker the that and the gap is getting wider!
