Default Production engine comparison, get your ass BACK in here!

Continuing where the last thread left off. Previous thread is located here: https://www.tamparacing.com/forums/g...ss-here-4.html

You guys seemed to get back on track in the last thread but apparently it was too little too late. Keep this civilized or I'll make blind threats that lead to nothing being done!

In your opinion, whos building the strongest engines out there right now? Why do you feel that way? What engine(s) currently being produced do you feel offer the strongest platform to build apon?

Tell me what's going to be our next 2JZ's, and RB's. Current production only.

discuss!

Yeah, just like last time. LS7. I've seen Viper motors put out over 1000hp with a TT setup.

Im going to put my 2 cents in.

4G63- Still currently in production, with years of reverse engineering to back it up. Proven paths to serious performance are limited only by the thickness of your billfold.



LS2/LS7- Although assembled in Ontario, this is the pride an joy of american's everywhere (unless your a ford guy). Crazy amount of power from the factory, and good for plenty more. Great power improvement from basic bolt on's. Like the 4G, theres just a ton of aftermarket support and potential.

Did the LS7 really just get compared to a 4 banger Mitsu motor? No wonder the last thread got locked.

I wouldn't have thought I'd have to explain this to Frank twice..

I listed two engines I feel offer strong platforms to build upon. Each for their own qualities. They aren't being compared to one another.
