Go figure, right...the little engine that could. I get into arguments all the time with some ricers at work, because GM still uses pushrod technologies. WELL, MAYBE CAUSE IT WORKS!!
I took this out of GM's site:
"Now comes the Gen IV Vortec V8s. Launched in 2005, the Gen IV engines deliver even greater efficiencies, with further refinement and more advanced technology. Once again they prove the doubters—the engineers and industry analysts who claimed the inherent advantages of cam-in-block engines could not be applied in the environmentally sensitive 21rst century—patently wrong. AFM cylinder de-activation delivers the power and performance of a V8 engine with new levels of fuel efficiency, and its full potential has yet to be realized. " Hell yeah!!
