btw as for the dsm guy talkin shit about GM interiors I've been inside about 6 dsms and haven't seen any with a complete interior, mostly because shit is broken or hanging down
I like my interior I get plenty of complements on the seats, the ashtray makes a great hideaway switch panel and the a/c vents fit autometer gauges perfectly

What does a motor have to do to impress you then? How about this, can you triple an LS1's whp without changing the factory internals, how about a 302 or modular 4.6? There are QUITE a few 500+whp 4G63's running around on stock block, crank, rods, pistons etc. Even a few that broke the 600whp barrier with all the above. All from a motor that put out 195bhp from the factory or about 160ish to the wheels. THAT is impressive no matter how you look at it. Don't even get me started on 302's.... Those motors split themselves easy enough as is.
honestly I'm not trying to downplay the capabilities of any 4 cylinder, fucking eh I like em too but I'm tired of people being ignorant about anything made stateside

You guys wanna compare dick sizes with interior? Sit in a E46 M3 and stfu. Interior is irrelevant!
4G63 makes insane power insanely easy. Nuff said. Frankly I'm surprised how easily it competes with a V8 power wise...and at the end of the day you can still get a rediculous 27-30mpg if need be.
Also, I'd like to point out the thread of "if you could have anybody's car on here, which would it be"...and Jerry's Mirage was the unanimous winner overall...hmmm..
Oh, and when they make a 4 banger SBC but cutting one in half, then it'll be cool.
err...no, even then it wont..
You know what? Actually being able to get to spark plugs is gay. Spark plug wires, exhaust manifolds, 1 piece 1 head, far lighter design, gay gay gay. Assuming you are talking about pushrod V8s even...what does it take to upgrade the cam? Wow, pulling out the fucking radiator, condensor, fan, and everything else in the way? Damn, if only they made it easier to axcess to upgrade...you know, like on top of the damn head....

what's the gains of a cam swap in a ohv v8? what's the cost of a cam swap in a ohv v8?
ease of install doesn't outweigh the cons
cost of 4g63 cams (500-700 dollars)
cost of LS1/LT1 cam (250-300 dollars)

gains:being able to rev the car out to 9k
i know in the v8 it gives it probably a bigger gain though.
