Ya I agree, That's why I said as far as a stock motor goes, they don't build enough cylinder pressure, crank case evac isn't really a concern.
When you get into heads, cams, or even some type of power adder where the engine is going to build alot of cylinder pressure, then there could very well be some measureable difference.

Thats funny, the v2 was my cam choice until a friend offered me that one still in the box for 225. I will take a little bit of a rough ride for better performance (hell my DD has a boxer engine aka slightly rough idle) but some people who want a totally street cam dont like the v2. But you can deal with it if you like the power enough.

I got a 112 LSA....I agree this cam may not be the most streetable cam in my book. Here is video of straight headers idle before tune.........

Well im at work and cant watch it, but anything cammed before a tune running off headers is gonna sound choppy/rough. I like the 112lsa, if your gonna have a cam why not have some rumble. I dynoed 430whp but the dyno is known for reading a little high, id say on most dynos it would be a 410-420whp car.

Ported 241 heads, valve train upgraded to handle .600 lift and chromoly pushrods for higher rpms, timing chain double roller, slp oil pump, cam, lsx intake manifold 90/90, long tubes, hooker catback. Assorted suspension mods, short shifter, upgraded clutch, 4.10 gears. Later on i added a 100 shot mainly because i wanted to see what it would do against my 517whp supra. But i liked the spray and kept it till i sold the car.

Didn't you hear.....I'll let you know.

So Godzilla is destroying downtown tokyo, the LS1 went and fought Godzilla. After the LS1 beat up Godzilla it looked up and challenged God. After the LS1 got done beating God down, the LS1 became God

**Zinergy** · 09-10-2009, 09:26 AM

Maybe not the best ever built, but def one of them

**blackSS01** · 09-10-2009, 10:09 AM

The LS series is the best ever built.

Been said my many car people.

And from what cave did you guys just walk out of??

It's a good engine, don't get me wrong, but there are certainly better out there.

Name one that has better weight, better response to mods, better gas mileage, better design. It can't be done.

You can't be serious??? Are you going to put stipulations in here like production or aftermarket?? Money?? Because if money isn't an issue, and I can build anything I want, then I would have to start with writing a book

Bottom line is,,,there are plenty of better engines out there if you have the money and knowhow.

Production!!! Once money is thrown into the mix, everything goes out the window.
