its not a myth....


take a older cavy 2.2 apart and take apart a older civic motor and compair...

the honda is built with better parts and smarter design.... hell look at the old supra inline 6cyl... no one in this country has ever sold that strong of a bottom end from the factory.... damn thing will make 800hp without cracking a seal. i will say the new zo6 motor is a good step but where was that 10 years ago like the import guys were building? oh yeah...we had lt1's back then that can't go 50,000 miles without being po's in stock from.... make 800 with it and see what happens.

don't even get me started on the bullshit ford mod motor...... god i hated working on those things.


the newer ecotech 4 from gm is better but that's only because they are chasing the imports and thought the nopi racing thing would make for a good way to sell more so they built it better. hard to sell things when your lossing because of blown up shit like the old gm 4's would do.
