One for the rich small block guys.

It's sad when you can make 1500 from an LS for under 10k. Mopar has always been so damn expensive in comparison. AND TO BE CLEAR. I'm not glorifying an LS but from a performance perspective they are an incredible engine. Extremely ugly and blah but can't deny what the LS and now the ford coyote are capable of on stock components

I was JUST coming back to say just that. I have a friend I've known thirty years that lives right down the road. Chevy guy. <insert eyeroll> He's the service manager at the local dealer in Macon. He has a 1500 2wd of "some" 2000s year. I think like a 2005. It's on its third or fourth engine. It's 1400 plus HP. It's a "very" mild 5.3 build. Sounds totally stock. Upgraded fuel system and a turbo bigger than my head. When he blows an engine up, he just gets another one, goes through it and swaps it out.
