The old W2W camaro (casper) went .13 quicker with a 352 LQ4.
I bet MMR will be quicker when they get the car sorted out though.
I think more people would swap in the 5.4l mod motor (my personal favorite) if it wasn't so big.
It's about 5 inches bigger in width and height, but roughly the same length (I think the LS is slightly longer).

You talking about Ronnie Duke's old GTO?

And I agree with everything else you said.

I don't recall exactly either though.
Apples to oranges. Each engine has made roughly the same power (LSX vs 5.4 mod).
The 4.6 hasn't quite made the same power as the 5.4l or the LSX though.
Quickest is relative to the package, it doesn't make one powerplant better than the other.
TitanMotorsport's Celica went 6.65 @ 209. They did it in an 1800 pound pro stock car.
All these engines, setups, and weights are limited by the class they run in.
If there were pro stock cars running LS engines, I would bet they'd be close to John's times.
Hell, John would probably be DEEP into the 5's without a weight limit or turbo limits.
The big name LS cars run in the LS classes (the ones in LSX challenge and shootout), none of which are at pro stock level.
This is where the money is and this is why you don't see any pro stock cars with LS engines.

Casper is technically front and back halved if I remember correctly.

Who shoots for 7's in an LSX and keeps it under 400ci?![Icon Lol](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_lol.gif)

Casper had 352ci. I know, I know it's not 346ci.
This thread keeps getting more and more infantile, irrelevant, and illogical.
First it's the GM guys and then the Ford guys sling it right back.
You all know who you are, and hopefully you'll end this pointless BS.
The Mod motors and LS motors are equally good. They've each made roughly the same power and they're close in weight (aluminum v aluminum).
There's really nothing left to be said except: to each their own.
To argue that one is better than the other is foolish.
Now lock this horrible thread already.
