A 6.0L badge on a 5.7L car? Sounds like factory rice to me!

I worked at a dealership and we would see things like that all the time. My favorite was when we got in a brand new POTNIAC. That quality control!

That is freakin awesome. I don't suppose you have a PIC to show us? Was it a badge on the car that they made wrong? What vehicle was it?

I'm not skerd, LS2 = 350rwhp. So what? How much do those cars weigh? What kind of rear do they have, can they launch on it from the factory? I know BMR changed out the axles from a 300M. Must be nice.
