Why not more 454's?

[TATERNATOR]

Ok I'll post them when I get home with me in them

[TATERNATOR]

Is it just me, or does TATERNATOR get in alot or heated arguments on here?

I'm just trying to get to the bottom of said car and motor. I'm not upset at all

I'm not gonna run out and take pics for you. But here's a link to some old pics on Corvette Forum. If you get on Corvette Forum and send me a PM I'll send you one back telling you what a dumb azz you are. There are two pages on this link and pics of two of my Corvettes (I have three) along with pics of the aluminum 572, my 68 shortwide, my old drag boat, old motorcycle, etc...

(removed link...never got a PM anyway)

If you wanna race me come up here and bring money.

I've had enough of this for today. I never got a PM on CF, I'll check again later.

Sorry I stirred up so much crap. I'll steer clear of this forum for a while.

Not to add fuel to the fire, but BBC's are limited RPM wise unless you put a ton of money into them. LSx engines car whine up just as good as anyone's wife.

Wow, talk about a thread that had to turn quick!! Fasglas, what area do you live?

[bangbangskeetskeet]

But it's a moot point because you can't build an LS motor that big. That's why BBCs are best for big cubes.

You sure about that? The LSx goes to 512 cubes. Like i said you gotta have all your cubes to come close to the LS motors. Im not so sure you seeing the point were all making.

CUBE FOR CUBE LS MOTORS OWN ALL

Maybe that will make it easier to read/understand????

a) the blue font is really making people angry around here

b) that's a nice bbc you have...but i guarantee you have some $$$$ in it. Hell, that oil pan alone was probably 500 bucks.

c) cousin has about 5 grand into his 81 malibu....502, 2 stage nitrous, forged, bla bla bla. Runs LOW 8 on juice, mid 10 n/a. For 5 grand, very few people here would be running 10's, and definately not n/a. HOWEVER, his car overheats nonstop, and gets about 3mpg.

I would guess some of the faster guys here are STILL getting 15mpg+, and drive their car atleast on a semi-regular basis. They don't have to readjust the carb everytime the weather changes, and don't have to worry about a bowl running dry if they floor it.


Each has its advantages, if I was making a pure drag car, I'd probably lean towards the BBC, but for a daily driver, ls motor is the way to go.
