LS is a great shortcut vs an older V8, kinda horsepower made easy. I'll leave the bottle vs boost debate to another thread.
A timeslip dosent much care about how you got it, how easy it was or how much it cost.
Mod for mod, the LS always comes out on top.
Always.
Your spouting a bunch of nonsense, and your mighty C4 is probably just another "warp capable" sbc car that I come across all the time that run's high 12's at best.
Get over yourself.

I never said it was fast, mighty or that I was great. I said it was faster than several LS powered mildly modified cars that it raced.
Sounds like your butthurt that you can't brag about your common as dirt HP easy as 123 LS

I wasn't really comparing bottle to boost. But it does kindove read that way, sorry. But I will not apologize for saying the best factory head sbc won't touch a comparable cid ls with the best factory head......... Not happening.

Does the factory head list including racing team stuff?

Hahaha. 9 out of 10 LS cars have little to fear from your aging outdated platform.
But if believing your ride is above LS1's because it's harder to make a sbc fast you need to put the crack pipe down.
Nobody cares about how hard you worked or what it took to get your car to where you mistakenly think it's fast.
Cause it ain't.

If you get one off heads(Nascar or prototype) then my LS gets the equivalent (Nascar or prototype) head as well. It would just widen the gap in my favor as well......

Wouldn't add as much to the LS as really help the SBC, LS already has a good head to start and why many stay with stock vs aftermarket.

Wow that reply was basically equivalent to nuh-huh!
Again with putting words in my mouth, maybe I shouldn't reply and you can have a conversation with yourself. I'm sry but nobody cares about your plane jane LS that you got from the dealer and put a cold air kit on.

yea thats not true, a lot of people do head swaps on ls engines bc aftermarket heads add plenty of power.. just ask mamo or AFR or any other head manufacturer
Sbc still works. Most people seem to dumb down the ls to sbc standards.
Stock 243 heads can easily support 450+whp. Stock castings work fine and are highly underrated
The idiot above is one of those. His h/c/i fbo fcar couldn't leave the 12s.
LS sucks? why did it replace the sbc then? and its faster, gets better fuel mileage, can spin higher rpm reliably, the blocks are way stronger, last longer, leak less oil, the rods/crank/block hold up to more than double the hp. You can get an aluminum block cheaper. The fuel injection system is FAR superior than a TBI or TPI. The rocker arm design is better. the cam diameter is larger. The cam is much easier to change. The valve angle is much better. The heads are far superior.
I just think your brain is fried.

Outside of quip's, you don't have much do you?
Your sbc unless you got hc and intake ain't schoolin any 4th gen ls1.
And thats a stock LS1.
In other word's, your full of ****.
Old school huge cam,hillborn injected, 7000rpm lunch, 327 stick car, was bad ***. my buddy's car , he won the 74 winter national in his class with this car. He prolly would've traded his left nut for a big inch LS...... Don't get me wrong old sbc had it's place and I will always respect that. But it's very hard to beat a LS rocket ship....

What’s faster. An ls1 camaro or an l98 camaro? I rest my case.
No kidding lol, you even skipped over LT1's. Its called evolution, like everything else things get better. LS ruled the world til the terminator came out. A couple of those 4 Valve Cars could hang but you had to drive them and most couldn't.
