If GM was like Arctic Cat they would still be on the C6! Getting it really dialed in! 

and if it was a Polaris they would send out a press statement for every rag to print about how this was the most tested most reliable most durable fastest car they ever made talk about how no car has ever gone through a more rigorous building prosses with  redundant checks allowing 1 worker to shut down the whole line if something is not perfect    . then knowing full well it was a pile of shit with major issues send them out to there sheep .

Ls has been faster in its own chassis than any coyotard 

LS explodes into a billion pieces if you try to make coyote power levels with one

It’s unlikely that the pushrod v8 can handle 1000 hp.  The 6.2 is the 500 hp model...  they have a new ford coyote based 5.5 liter  as their big hp engine.  So I can see why gm can’t figure out how to build a chassis to handle dual overhead cams and the power they put down.  They never had a motor of this caliber that is copy of ford’s v8’s so they didn’t have to design for this level of power.

It can’t be coyote based if it’s a 5.5 because the coyote can’t get there at Stock block dimensions oops
