The LS6 was not in NASCAR because the cubic inch limitation was 427 (the Ford 427 was actually displacing 425ci, but Ford rounded to 427. Do the math.). The LS6 was a 454, too big by 27 cubic inches. Also, the SOHC and the Tunnel Port were not on the original list. If they were, the SOHC would come out on top. But neither engine was offered as a factory option, all of the engines on the list were. Even then, I did say that the 427 would come out on top, didn't I? Most of those motors had about the same horsepower, but the weight of the car varied. Therefore, I stand by my original decision.
This thread, so far...
