That's about the gayest thing you have said. So you raced some ricer? What's your point? How about you race a turbo honda with 300-400whp that is setup correctly, you would get your *** handed to you.

Just for the books. A simple 224-228 cam with about .588 lift on a 112 lsa and a ok flowing set of heads would get you to the 400 whp mark. The LS GM motors are the best small block out there. Light, easy to work on, make power, aftermarket up the butt. They like forced induction and NA alike.

Re: The LS1 Engine swap....

to bad we all can afford 1.....not to mention the gas mileage you get with 1 of those ls1 gadgets....the only reason they gain power so easy is lack of engineering...you know y hondas dont make easy power doing NA mods?..probable not...hasnt the 350 been in production since the 60's or 70's?..can you imagine the power and performance a japanese engine could put out if they have been engineering it fot that long...damn it would be crazy ...i think theyr over rated its just my opinion..iv ridin in a z06 vette at work and it was quick but i was more impressed by a miata with 160hp :1

im not saying theyr bad engines their just not worth the price you pay...the ls2 actually has some type of an engineering standpoint behind it...those are decent engines also..its just my opinion it doesnt mean much i was just standing behind it

Randy - Well said......Acurately said...You are obviously a smart fellow....

Gang rape me beerbong?...Stick too Chicago bear football and bear drinking...Leave the insults for others...You are coming up short on bagging and horsepower..

Ok a 400whp turbo charged 4 banger vs. a LS1 400whp 8 banger in the same car....Well torque and the lag turbo time would be the 4 bangers down fall, the LS1 would not get wasted......Mpg probably be the same and reliability would definetely go to the N/A motor...
