It's too bad that engine barely develops as much torque as the old LS3, that it's hp doesn't happen until well past 7000 rpm, or that they weren't bright enough to realize such an engine/car would require standard coolers to function, properly.
The grass is always greener on the other side...The only reason that engine both meets emissions, and develops as much hp as it does, is because they rev it to the moon...and you just can't take the same approach on a pushrod engine.
For that...we may have to wait and see what this new "LT5" can do.
