displacement = size so if you get to the same power to weight ratio you still win... always


My point is heavier things dont move as fast :D

I dont give a flying toss about the LS1, my point is heavier things arent as quick as something thats lighter, period.

If the engine light is flashing pretty quick it usually means a misfire... sounds like its time for a tune up.

I didnt. He said theres no replacement for displacement.

power to weight ratio > displacement.


So put the LS1 in a lighter car? You can pick the bare block up and carry it around like it's nothing. It's like 91lbs.
