I'm not surprised that everyone avoids the LSX block because of its weight. I figured it would detract from the handling on my car. However, is it really any worse than an LS9. Once you factor in the weight of the supercharger, inter cooler, etc? Steilow seems to be able to get his nose heavy car around the track better than most...
