I'm certainly not going to come here and argue that they are ls-destroyers. I just feel that they deserve a little more love than they get.

I think there is actually more hate for that motor from the home team than anything. Especially the 4V guys. Try telling one of them that motor-wise, a 3V is comparable to a 4V!?...dear lord it's like the sky fell!

I know what you meant, and I would never debate a stock for stock 3V/LS race. However, boost+cams???that could be interesting. That said, I have heard of stock 3V's running bottom 13's in the 104-105 range. Just saying. But stock to stock, my money is on the LS alllllllll day.

Not a hater, just speaking from experience lol. I also had a buddy with an auto 3V, tune only on street tires who would run consistent low 13's. Then there is a guy at the track consistently who has a KB on his, DR's, and runs mid 12's at 113-114 which does not impress me whatsoever.

Like I said, it's a tossup. Usually it's all in the setup, and there are a lot of non-car "car guys" out there if you know what I mean, who have no clue what they're doing.

i just never really gave any true respect for a "lightly modded" (I/E) 3Vs just because i ran one in my basically stock A4 z28 and murdered it. Also one night at ATCO some kid started running his mouth in a 3v with a roush s/c (basically stock everything else which i thought was stupid). so he got whooped on by my gf's L99 5th gen with me driving, then i told him i'll let my gf run him for the rest of the night. yeah, he was pissed when he got beat 3 times by a girl.
