I do belive Pontiac also makes "economy" cars. Just because Honda can get as much h/p out of a 6cly as Chevy/ Pontiac does out of a 8, you call that "economy"??? I dont see why some people hate on any type of cars. I have a 4cly, do I hate V8s... NO!!! Thats what you like and I really dont care. It is what YOU like not what I like. Do I talk **** about how under powered your stock V8 is??? Do I tell you that you have the same damn motor in you car for that past 30 years??? NO i dont, you know why??? because its what you like and I could give a ****. M
My RL is a 3.5lt SOHC and make 300hp and its a ULEV. You have a 5.7lt V8 that might make that and it does NOT meet LEV let alone ULEV.
Like I said, you like what you like and I like what I like. Now we can get along

They are called GEN 3 engines for a reason (GEN 1 = old original Small Block Chevy, GEN 2 = LT1, GEN 3 = LS1/6). Have a GREAT day! 11 Second Club

When I say the 'same" motor I understand that they have a diff head, intake, ing system. I guess what I was trying to say is that they still use 2 valves per cly, One cam, No VVT, low C/R. If Chevy would put the money into there motors like Honda you would have a crazy motor. I for got how many cfm my head flows but I do remember someone saying my 4cly head flows as much as both V8 heads. I really wish Chevy would use some of the Tech that honda and toyota has to make some motors, they would make **** tons of power. Well thay have kinda done it one time that I know of.. The new ZO6. 11 to 1 C/R is kinda the norm on alot of Imports but its a huge deal when it comes to a Dom. having that kind of C/R from the showroom

Let's not get into the tech $h!t, or this will turn into a 20 page f*** fest with the importees (and others) giving
page long dissertations on the benefits/superiority of multi-valves and great hp/liter over larger displacement 2vpc/OHV powerplants. 
Let's just say that GM (and other domestics) found a way to do performance without all the standard Nippon technophile bells and whistles.

The GM Smallblock also hasn't been the "same motor for 30 years" you ignorant moron. The LS1 is Generation III, meaning its a totally different motor. Everything from the block to the firing order is different, get a clue before you talk ****.

Cant wait for the vids!
And while were on the subject of RD into motors, two facts stand out:
1)(And this is what got me interested in these motors initially) The LS6 is one a small number of NA powerplants making about 1HP per pound engine in bone stock form.
2)GM spent many hundreds of millions on the LSX architecture, Ive heard as much as a bilion in the various programs for trucks, cars, etc.
In the end there a whole lot of different ways to go fast and frankly that's a good thing. Think about what the most interesting races on here are. Cobras, AWD turbo buggies, and other LSXs. It would suck if everything was the same.

I'd rather have 3 of my cars than 1 of your pieces of **** anyday.
Honda makes economy cars. In the history of the company, they've made a total of about 2 "sports" cars. The NSX and the S2000. Both of them are overpriced riceburners, neither makes over 290HP, and both sound like garbage. Thats why I say they make economy cars.

Once again, congrats, your RL is a FWD based commuter car. Our engines are LEV also, so stop talking about thing you don't have a clue about.
No, now you can leave and go back to your ricer forums. Here you are, calling out the LS1 and calling it "underpowered" on LS1Tech.com. You can't be serious, just leave now.

Remember:
Lets start here, the RL that I have is AWD and has 300hp and yes it cost more then your "home" on wheels. So you should not talk out of you *** about **** you dont know about
About the power band
My car is not stock so it makes good tq and damn good power under the curve. You motor would turn mine backward??? In that case, where do you live??? Wanna race with us when the track opens??? Didnt think so, Im sure you are some dumb *** 19yo that thinks his **** is fast. Im down to run if you are near me
I understand that the motor is a Gen 3. If you would read I said that the Ing system, ext is not the same.
I have never talked **** about the ls1, I just belive it could be made better with more tech.
You seem mad, Im not sure what the problem is. Is it the lack of **** or the lack or H/P???

They used high c/r to make alot of h/p, also I do belive they used 4 vpc... right??
What are you talking about using more gas??? 99% of the time the imports use less gas then the dom.

It would be hard to belive that GM spent that much money on that motor. GM is damn near broke. My uncle is the project mang for the Caddy SRX. He lives in Lanceing sp? Mich. GM is having a hard time, even the Z06 has some problems, such as the roof wanting to fly off. But, people buy that car for the motor and as long as that works they should be happy

ls1 uses 10:1 CR plus 5.7L with 2 valves per cylinder. (345hp)
i guess a bump from 10:1 to 11:1 is significant, but not mind blowing. displacement means a lot.
