What do you consider the "greatest" muscle car engine ever?

[9t8z28]

Wheres the 454 LS6?

[snaggeltooth]

You know Murder we always disagree in wording ..lol.. Maybe back in the day a Big Block was the way to go , but today you can make 500hp out of a LSx engine just as easy as a 502BB.... So now we can get into a good debate over SB vs BB...

Ford 427 Cammer, Not really a production engine but would kill anything on that list stock for stock.

[SexyTransAm]

what bout the SBC 1st gen, the 502 BBC, the 572 BBC, or the Pontiac 400

[Nastyfoot]

I went with Buick 455 prolly cause I sat in one during some "muscular" behavior, and man, that thing screwed. Pinned me back in the seat.

Terrific feelig. What a rush. Hooked ever since. And I'm glad to see that engine was in the poll. The "Stump Puller"

Ls6 454!

[Mr. Luos]

Half of the options didn't even come in muscle cars.
The LSx, the blown 4.6, the ZL1, the V10...none are in muscle cars.


I say Hemi 426.

[01RaptorTA]

He's including modern day muscle as well...

[Mr. Luos]
