Hi!

I looked at your LSx engine options on your web site.

Are all the LSX Blocks you mention Iron?

If some of them are Aluminum, which ones are they?

Thanks,

Ty

I don't think that kind of engine will ever be the fastest in ProMod just because it will produce too much torque. Or why is it so that everyone that has had big inch TTs (Moran, Summers, etc) have come back to smaller engines and make their rides quicker?

Tom, you should start selling tickets to your dyno sessions, I bet all of us here would be willing to pay to hear that monster at peak revs!
