4.6 slow? No :(
Around my town theres A LOT of F-bodys. A ton of lt1's, and ls1's, a lot running anywhere from 13 to 10 seconds in the 1/4. Anyhow I'm always arguing with my buddys who own F-bodys about the 4.6 2v and 4v engines. Like tireburner has taught me a lot I dont need to mag race but MM&FF has some hella fast 4.6 2v's, 4v's with blower setups. There always telling me to stick with the 5.0 but it just gets on my nerves I guess

The mod engines can be made to scream fairly easily, they just take a bit more cash than a good old 5.0...

While it's true that there's no replacement for displacement, it's fun to see somebody make a lot of horsepower with only a few liters to work with. Having lots of aftermarket suppliers is great, but it's nice to see some ingenuity employed once in a while, too. (But looks who's talking! I've got all kinds of go-fast parts available.)
