It wouldn't have changed the reliability. Streetability and autocross ability is another debate.

Alright, I suppose I have to give credit where credit is due. That engine in Payback is probably more docile and driveable that 90 percent of the modified LS engines I've driven. when I had to take the car down the street to that car show, it was totally the opposite of what I expected. Despite being loud and nasty sounding, it was super easy to drive. I would even complain about having to drive it in L.A. Stop and go traffic.

Rob, if you want your engine to be better than Todd's you should probably let me drive it to see how it compares.

Dave, I don't need to drive your car. I had an engine that didnt have any torque for the street, and I had a Mustang with LeMans stripes, I can pretty much imagine what your car will be like to drive. Ok, that and I know I would just stall it and embarrass myself

I forgot about you driving my car. I'm surprised to hear you say it was more docile than the LS. I haven't driven many LS engines but cubic inches equals easy torque. That's why Rob's engine will be a much better street mill.

This baby cammed motor should have have plenty of torque for the street. A helluva lot more than my 377.

But yes I would enjoy watching you modulate the Tilton triple disk. I'll be sure to learn myself when no one is around.

Easy killer...

Awww, come on DG... same cubes, mine is wet sump, both peak around 7k. I'm just playin around anyway. I will race you guys around Laguna Seca if I make it out that way or i'll meet ya in the middle somewhere. To tell you the truth, i'm a little jealous of your setup over mine. Sb2.2 is sexyyyy, same with side oiler! People will look at mine and be like, "meh, looks like a normal sbc".

Hey man I'm just glad you came over to this forum.

Yeah don't kid yourself. That is one bad biatch. Those 15* heads may not look exotic but they dominate mine AND Rob's fat heads.

No go on Laguna Seca... our cars are WAAAY too loud to pass sound there.

But I like the idea of meeting in the middle.

Hey I'm looking to muffle mine enough to get on that track

I'd meet in the middle but first I need to get the car to run. The dyno is only step one.

We'll determine domination when they all run and we meet in the middle

DG you are dominating the ppoll, you better deliver or your bowtie fans will lynch you.

Well played sir, that will silence the ZL1 smack for a bit
