The C head 4v is actually a good motor. But, price per horsepower... ls1 runs away with it. Considering the Mach 1 needs 4 cams and the ls1 needs 1.
Also, I'm sure porting heads on LS heads are cheaper and easier to assemble then 4v heads.
Intake manifold, there's not much going on for the 4v. The best option is to cut the stocker in half and re-weld it. Which has been proven the best gain. That's not cheap, last time I looked it was about $1100.
I'm not sure how much LS intakes go for.
Also, 2Vs aren't slow because the owners are dumb. There just slow unless they have boost thrown at them. It's really that simple.

Sorry man, even though I'm a ford guy. The ls1 is a much better motor and platform then the C head 4v.

B. I was just saying I would love to see him run a local car with the same mods he listed except he is not full boltons. Can't help that everybody gets butthurt over a race that will probably never happen
[/QUOTE]
Ok so how is it that another 2v with the same mods as the one I raced will have a different outcome, sure there could be a better driver that may make it a little closer. The only difference that should be seen is the driver. This holds no water that a 2v would win

I ran a 98GT with an 04 GT engine (260hp) with headers and exhaust and I put 3 car lengths on it from a 15-75 roll, the thing did not have much torque and took forever to spin up. From a 40 roll it was a little better but I still put a half car on it to 100. Again that was in my 06 Altima 3.5 5MT.

My light bolt on 99 Z28 puts bus lengths on 2V's with similar mods. From any speed. They are sorry as ****.

There is more then one 5.4 4v that has made over 600 to the wheels. A stock cube ls1 has yet to accomplish that. Don't even start with the ls1 hasn't been pushed n/a bs as we all know it has. I am not comparing it to a streetable 5.7 ls. I am comparing it to any n/a 5.7 ls. So again your argument is weak and you have been proven wrong yet again.
