Wow, saying stuff like that is why I think that you have blinders on. Once you have made your mind up, there is no way it can be changed...even when logic and facts are staring you straight in the face.
Packy can't respond because he won't be back until the fall, but I will say that he has posted enough video's on here of him running that it would be hard to say that the engine in his car is "not a good engine". He has driven multiple times to tracks hours away from where he lives and ran his car and then drove home. He has ran the snot out of that car on the street, along with daily driving it.
I daily drive my car and can't tell you how many passes I have made with this car, but it's a lot. I wouldn't hesitate to jump in it and make a drive across country with it.
The tunes are what kills the engines in these cars, but no matter how many times I tell you, you will never comprehend what I am saying because you have already made your mind up that anything that isn't GM is junk.
I'm sure some time in the future you will once again throw in my face that I bring nothing to this website, because even though I have tried bringing something here, in your mind I haven't and never will.

The termi stuff is highly over rated. Mine had 2 bad bearings and a bent crank and it did not detonate enough to hurt melt or crack the pistons. You could barely see it really. All it really had was I/E/2.96 pulley. You better be glad and write a thank you letter to gm for only making 69 ls6 camaros in 02......or the termi legend/myth would not be what it is.
I like the new ford stuff. I've said that before. They have finally caught up to 2002 with a solid n/a motor.

No blinders here. I look at **** for what it is. The old modular stuff was crap and the fact that you and others stood behind that **** shows who had blinders on.

Are you talking about the GMMG modified ZL1 prototypes?

I bent a rod, spun 2 bearings, and twisted a crank in one of my ls1s from the slightest bit of detonation (wont mention the reputable tuner who did it). The more power you make, the more the slight detonation is going to do damage. Even with a forged rod and a steel crank... when a motor making say 500hp spinning 6500rpm gets hit with an explosion trying to push the motor in the opposite direction, it will break. My buddies 03 cobra detonated for 4 years before finally hurting a piston (ignorance to a bad tuner). That was a steggy ported full bolt on car.
