There was an article in one of the Car & Driver issues about SOHC/DOHC vs Pushrod engines. I don't remember the whole article, but it made the pushrod sound alot better than the OHV engines. I don't think your comparsion of a 4.6 DOHC vs LS1 is that acurate, a LS1 can blow away the 99-01 cobras, not to mention the Mach-1's that have the same DOHC engine. GTO vs Mach1 wasn't a good comparision either, the GTO is defentally needing some things to completment the LS1, hopefully next years improvements will do the GTO justice.
