You mean like that 70's something Oldsmobuick you posted a picture of a few months ago?.. hehhee...... That thing kinda reminds me of the cop car with the two nitrous bottles in the Chris Farley movie Black Sheep..... hehehhe...

Honestly though, I thought your car was very cool!

On the arguement of LS-1 versus 5.0 and the defense of 80's technology versus 90's technology: I think the most major change to LS-1 was the intake side port design on the heads. Ford 5.0's have been using the same basic port design since the inception of the 289/302. Taking that into account, one could argue that its 90's versus 60's technology.

Through the years the 302 has evolved just like the 350 chevy. They were both treated with fuel injection at about the same time, and they both got roller cams. I'm not sure what year the chevys got roller cams, but we all know when ford introduced it!

I'm going to post a picture tonight or tomorrow of a LS-1 intake port off of my friends Z06. If you've never seen one before, you will be surprised!
