I think the LS3 would be an awesome engine for the "Z28" and the LS7 for the "SS" model.

Either way-imagine starting out with 430 horses, think of the cylinder heads on the LS3 and the tremendous potential there. I mean, that dude has 2.16 inch in and 1.6 exh valves! My trick flow heads had 2.02/1.6...for GM to produce a factory engine with things like this is frigging awesome! Add that to a 376 cubic inch engine and you get an awesome balance of torque and hp. Historically, something the "me too" boys could never compete with. A set of ported heads and decent cam in that engine would be hard to beat!

All things considered, its a very exciting time to be a GM enthusiast. They weren't messing around when they started the LS series, and it keeps getting better. I can only imagine a forced induction engine...but think they will reserve it for the 'vette.

Oh yeah, this was about wikipedia...sorry to get all excited. Wiki is a good source for info, yes it is submitted by users but most of the time its factual or damn near it. Other wiki users can make changes to inaccurate information. Maybe Im just optimistic about the LS3
