uhh... the LS7 is a 427ci (7.0l) vs the LS2 383ci (6.0l) and the LS7 heads are flowing something wicked with headers!

Bigger cubes = bigger power.

Not when the Cylinder walls are too thin to hold boost...

They have them making well north of 1000hp in twin turbo setups - so not that thin.

Beyond blasphemy. Why not a forged Ford Motor like the Cobra or GT500? The GT500 makes good power.

Why? Because an Ls7 or LSX makes a modular ford look like a honda B series.

Take it from someone who has an 05 CTS-V with an LS6, Ford isn't that far behind. 4.6 4Vs and the blown 5.4s are phenomenal, and they stand up great to LSx engines. The only problem with the stangs is that they tend to be heavy... the Z06 weighs something like 3200lbs... the GT500 weighs upwards of 3800lbs. Honestly, in my V, with one of the more powerful LSx engines... I'd be afraid to take on a Cobra. In a C6 vette, I'd still think twice. Ford proved that their modular engines can work in a supercar platform.. how about the Ford GT?
