Thanks HP Freak, I appreciate the info though I already knew the LT1 had alumium heads.. had the 5.0 come with good aluminum heads it have been running neck and neck with the LT1. The LT1 and LS1 are totally different engines. Someone running 9#s of boost on an LS1 has some serious tuning.. you can't deny that.

You are right about the stock cobra with a blower not being 500hp though, I did exaggerate, thanks for pointing that out(lets all be honest here) Its only 464 hp with a stock cobra and a blower. Not that far off of the 5-6 blown ls1 with 418 hp. Of course you could add a cooler to that LS1 and bring it up to 470hp.. Adding a cooler to a cobra is well... yet to bedetermined. If we're gonna talk mods, lets talk mods The LS1 is fast and I for one respect that.. But lets for a moment respect that the DOHC engine is beyond the LS1 in technology.. Its a class above a LS1. Its hand built, the block is built in France, the name of the guys who built it are imprinted on the valve covers all it really needs is forged pistons to be unstoppable.
