Hi Guys,working long hours for the next week or so I do not have time to "ramble".But I will,kind of like it.The more I find out on the LS1 the more I think it is a sbc.Gen 3 I think they call it.That is for later.Mr.Brady,you might want me to tell you what I think, but the people who run this site might not.This site gets a lot of trafic and I love it.Want to stay on it.I am "gogoat " from "Dudes" board but it seems dead now so I come here.I do not cut the 04 GTO down because I compaire cars of the eras,I am not stuipid.Contrary to what some people might think on this thread.I am a Pontiac die hard.I discount the 04 GTO without even seeing it in person,I do not think of it as a GTO,or a real Pontiac.It is a Monero with a gen 3 sbc,period.Pontiacs lost thier heart and soul after 1979.Were no longer Pontiacs.I will talk on what Pontiac could have and should have had later,if it were not for Chevy later.Now limits,the limits are changing fast.real fast.Even though you are invested in that bbc I hope you will come back when you find out the gap is closing,fast. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Good, so then don't ever comment ever again on any Pontiac model no matter how good it is and no matter how bad it spanks every other Pontiac that came before it ok?
And the LS1 is NOT a SMALL BLOCK CHEVY. It is a small block but it ain't a chevy. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Having answered dragncar's own requirement ("If any sbc crank will "lay down in the saddles" correctly it is a sbc.") with my previous post concerning the SAE paper, he is evidently still searching for the "right" criteria to call the LS1 a small block chevy. Comparing the very few commonalities between a sbc or LT1 are like saying all "A" frame cars were just next generation Fords (or whoever originated the "A" frame design).
