Why are you bringing up an engine with a factory blower to compare to an engine that has 1.2 liters less displacement and no blower? Also there is the $10k price difference in crate motors. But yeah good argument there.
You said american v8, i compared the two, you are the one who stated american v8 not me.
If you want driving dynamics, ask chris about that spreadsheet and when he plugged in the numbers from the dyno I provided him.
I guarantee you it was no sort of high strung cant move the car around setup.
Hell if you really want to look at driving dynamics and how something will drive, heres a dyno sheet from a mild cammed LSx setup
