I wouldn't expect someone who thinks a 2 door sedan is a sports car to understand.

hmmm pee paww, it was a joke, theres no doubt in my mind an old "big block based aftermarket blocked engine" with twin turbos would make stupid power but uhhh so does a jet engine, now take some Geritol, kick back in your recliner and chill out, andddd this, contradictory statement ahead "two door sedan" might show you something cool , like electronic fuel metering devices.

Yea, the big block chevys are where it is at, but the GEN IV LS is where it should be, GM dropped the ball going to a 4 bolt per slug cylinder head.

BTW, check out the pump gas drags, a few 7 second pump gas chevys out there, how many supras do that on 93 shell gas?

The biggest difference between the two is that no matter how much money you throw at an LSx engine if you dont know WTF your doing/reading it wont hold up. The SBC is idiot proof and can be fixed on the shoulder of the road for 20 dollars.

I think your just to excited about your little project yall got going on over there. what does your company tend to work on? j/p i just dont wnt pople getting the wrong idea. mr. ford man overhere. damn man thats a low blow

Luckymex_dallas

This is a good question though.I think it has to do alot with the begin of fuel injection people started to experiment with the new blocks, lt1, mainly. I guess they got tired of slapping edelbrocks intakes and carbs on the old school. The ls engines have also exploded the aftermarket industry, (blowers,turbos,nitrous) nowadays people like using the technology..

Simple answer... SBC and LSX are three different letters therefor making them different!

Ben R

A lot of LSX/SBC people get butt-hurt when they find out that Ford got it right from the start. That EI, IE, EI, IE lay-out sucked major donkey dick on the original SBC design and when they decided they needed a better design to go fast what did they do? Well they copied the SBF symmetrical port layout.

The traditional SBF/SBC stuff is way ahead of the LSX stuff in terms of strength especially when it comes to racing over a competitive season. SBF/LSX both share a 4-head-bolt per cylinder design but the SBF engines will hold 3k hp reliably while the LSX is an iffy tune-up away from a huge melt-down and a trip back to the engine shop.

The cylinder heads available for the SBC/SBF are also way beyond what is available for the LSX but it's been a while since I've looked at any LSX stuff.

In summary: SBF > SBC > LSX

That explains why there is a SBC swapped into more rides than any other engine in existence.....


The smallest 4.8 LS engine can go 383 or more cubes, none of the older stuff can, the iron truck engine blocks can also hold 1000 HP with good rods and pistons, the older stuff...not likely without allot of block prep.

When looking at budget builds, you dont need to get aftermarket heads to run your *** off with the LS engines, the older SBCs and SBFs need to go aftermarket, when aftermarket is concerned, yea, the playing field pretty much becomes even. They can go 510 ci with aftermarket on the LS, i have not seen any SBC/SBF that go more than 454 ci, there is a sunnys 472, but thats it.

A junk yard build off leaves the LS ahead, aftermarket? As stated above the LSx can get more cubes, more power and have heads available that flow 400 CFM, so i cannot say i can chalk up a W for the SBC or SBF against the LS stuff.

BTW, there is a member here running 9s all motor on a stock 6.0 truck motor with cam only in a fox mustang, most people here wish they can go 10s all motor. There is of course a weight advantage, but impressive none the less.

Pretty much every argument you made is dumb and just uninformed in general. The truth will set you free but first it's gonna **** you off.

I didnt see anyone mention reverse cooling!! Allows you to run more compression on a lower octane fuel!

There are canted and splayed valve heads for lsx now that will make the lsx game interesting. I havent seen any results for those heads but I havent looked
