Agree. Even a stockish one isn't bad.

As an example of a really broad power band with plenty of torque, here is my stock LQ4 6.0. Even had the stock truck manifolds on it. Engine was never cracked open. All I did was give it a custom tune. Put it in this Blazer that weighs 5300 lbs. without me in it. Stuck 3.73 gears in it which honestly wasn't enough with the 33" tires, if you listen I'm just getting into 3rd gear at the finish line, nearly finished in second gear, which is a 1.62 in the 4L60E I'm using in it.

Yet it still made enough grunt to push the truck to 14.30's at 95-96 mph, and was enough to embarrass that brand new 2010 SS camaro at the time. And that was a soft leave because it had a habit of snapping the pinion clean off the 12 bolt truck rear, and I needed to drive it back home 110 miles. Yeah it makes decent grunt
