Ha ha...Ford won...yes...which still irritates me. I'm GM at heart....I just own a Ford because I found it cheap and I can't afford more right now. Can't beat cheap power.
But yeah, LS1's are a godsend. Glorious motors. Too complicated though..they're very high tech. Wanna know an even better motor? The LS6...just like the LS1 took over for the LT1, the LS6 is the next one..that's the motor in the new Z06 Corvettes. Can we say 405 hp stock? Wow...not even the 2002 SVT Cobras could keep up with that...although they came damn close, and were priced much better. I have to admit..that car really was well done. 390 hp, 390 ft lbs, a pricetag, if I'm not mistaken, LESS than a BASE MODEL vette... Only thing the Mustang had nothing on the Vette with was handling.
