Default LTx (Opti) shootout predictions

This is not necessarily a tech thread but it is in the right section, but do you guys think the LTx shootout will defunk eventually since the new line of motors are coming out or will the LTx Shootout still be the shootout without the Opti’s(Gen V motors)?

Can't really call it an opti shootout since alot of guys have other ignitions, maybe reverse cooling shootout?

as far as I know it will always be known as the LTx shootout and will be for us Gen2 owners....

original link...http://ltxtech.com/forums/showthread...l=1#post357375


post of interest....

"Funny how I get asked this every year. They are wanting us to join them so they can use our LTX name for the the new engines. Simple answer is NO! They dont care about us, in fact they would probably phase us out becasue all they want is the copywrites and trademarkes of the LTX because they see it as the future. I will put it to you the same way I told them. We are not for Sell and not interested in any partnerships. I find it one of those truths to life, what comes around goes around.
