Nice numbers! Not whole bunch of hp below 4500 rpms though. If it's main function will be racing then it's a good stout motor.

Dude, what graph are you looking at? The torque is above 480 the entire time.
This is a track only car, but the low end torque is certainly more than can be applied on street tires in anything lower than 4th gear. The torque is not what makes this engine undesirable for the street. It's the gas mileage!

Yeah I bet you have, hell it's very tempting and logical to go with an lsx now days but instead I plan on keeping the old lt1 and just making it into a big nasty stroker.
