What's your point? When has GM ever come close to, or passed, 100hp/l in a production vehicle? Not once that I know of. The closest is probably the Quad 4 HO, but at just under 80, it isn't really that close.Kohburn wrote:now you are talking displacement again?

I hope to God you are being sarcastic here, as displacement aside I really don't think there is a better platform to build on.
My point was, that if the Honda motor had the same displacement as the GM motors, it'd made much more power. But they choose to make the same, even more, power with much less displacement.
jstillwell, good point and I totally agree. Thus the point I'm not using a N* in our 55 Bel Air although it'd be the superior engine IMHO.
