the all aluminum 427 in some of the 69 vettes produced upwards of 600horse, althought rated far far under that

some of the 454s upwards of 600hp and torque too.

i think the new z06 engine will outperform that one when it comes out.

well Im taken aback kain.. I had no idea you have simplicity down better then some of the finest engineers the automotive industry has.. no please by all means elaborate beyond your claim that "all those hoses" makes this engine a "clusterfuck"
