I've never heard any references into the gm world that anybody relates back to anything revolutionary about the gt40 engine. I don't know much about them. Basically all I know is they were fast as ****. That's not to say they didn't though. But I've never really seen anyone swap a ford engine into a gm and be as successful as the other way around. I've seen countless fox bodies and whatnot with sbc and ls motors though.
But who knows... this is more than likely because I stay in the GM world. Maybe the Ford world is the same way for their own history (I say maybe, but I'm sure this is true... I'm just not sure if our world crosses over into theirs as much as it seems from our side of the fence)

I see your point but you gotta remember the GT40 got band from the Le Mans back in the day it was far superior than the other cars yea other things like suspension driver, tires, aerodynamic played their part and helped the car but no matter what the car was FASTER than the other cars bc of the engine

Maybe it's because I've been drinking 151... but I THINK you said that a sbc blows up at 400 usually... but I'm honestly not sure where this conversation has gone at this point... clarify better for the inebriated please? lol

I don't deny this. However, my point on the matter is that GM motors do it for far less expense, AND are behind the power curve. But I am beyond hammered and typing on 8 screens right now hahahahaha

Max effort anything won't have any Ford or Chevy anything in them
Boils down to which design is better.... And well look at an LS and look at a Weesor, then let the butt hurt begin
