The argument of hp or tq per liter is ignorant.

How so? It is a pretty good measure of the power density (efficiency) of the motor, and if you design for a particular displacement (as Porsche does), then it allows you to keep footprints smaller and weights down.

Those are valid metrics as well. Think about some of the markets where these cars sell. They actually tax displacement, the weight and size of the motor alone won't impact that. They have to engineer a total solution and hp/liter is part of that overall solution. No one metric (even weight to power) give you everything you need to design a good performance car.

Really curious and anxious to see how the Z/28 and the GT350 models stack up. Goes to show just how efficient the GM drivetrain is compared to the Fords.

The ls7 is making +400 whp for less the 2000 rpm.
The Voodoo is making +400 whp for more than 2500 rpm . +700 rpm wider power band is nothing to write off , if you tell yourself different your just being a fanboi.

You could be making 342 hp/L ... but if its from a 750cc engine you're only making 257 hp. Meanwhile, even a lowly 39 hp/L engine can get you 400+ hp if you make it big enough. Which one will result in a faster car? The one with more power, right? If you're thinking 'well, it depends on how much the engine weighs' I would agree. But doesn't that then defeat the logic of hp/L being an important engine metric? Making the one of actual importance hp/lb? Quote:

7.0L vs 5.2L , that little Ford engine is putting up some good numbers.

Well the LS7 redlines at 7000, and crosses 400 whp at 4800, so that is actually a 2200 rpm spread, the voodoo pulls over 400 whp from 5700 to 8200 redline, or 2500 rpm.
