Comparing diesel torque numbers to LSX torque numbers is foolish. And those guys making those kind of HORSEPOWER numbers, Not TORQUE numbers, have pulled out a second mortgage on their farms. The supporting systems to make that happen is BIG MONEY, but I guess an 8 second diesel is cool...
is it cheap..... NO.. none of this stuff is "cheap"..
1000hp diesel is darn near a you need A, B, C parts and a good tuner. engine, turbo, fuel parts can be had for ~20k labor not included

beating up on gas engines like audi does at the leman with a diesel is definitely cool and different..

RBuhr69, if money isn't a determining factor for you in this hand, I'd easily go with the LS7, no question. The Mast guys are the real deal. Damon has helped me out a ton, and they always go out of their way for you.
i'd side with the LS7 over the LSx



got to pay to play right?
