I need schooling - old vs. new engines

Couple of other things I thought of that the G3 added over the LA/Magnum:

9. Crank driven oil pump (reduced cam flex)
10. Raised cam tunnel to straighten out pushrod angles

Ok, the crank driven oil pump was done for COST SAVINGS and packaging. That’s it. It’s BAD policy from a performance standpoint.

Correcting the lifter bank angles is nice, but under 8k RPM it doesn’t really matter.
