that aint a stock production engine dude
You never said it had to be a stock production engine you just said best V8 in the world.
I think Holden should stick to their standard push rod engine design. After the problems with alloy tech. The new quad cam V6 has been cracking heads heaps.
They should have just got the japs to build them an engine for it. They have been f*cking with DOHC a lot longer than anyone else.
nobody produces engines like the japs :)
cant go past there quality
BMW S62 engine form the E39 M5. 400hp (298kw) & 369 lb-ft (500nm) from a 5L V8.
0 to 100 in 4.7 secs.
Beat the shite out of any commo engine imo.
i'd say either the older bmw V8 from the M5
the lexus/toyota/nissan 4-4.5L quad camer's
or the new BA falcon quad cam V8
the LS2 is NOTHING special......300kw from a 6L. only "real" change from the old gen 3 is a slightly larger capacity.
When you concider that the in the 70s the GT falcon 351's were making something around 200kw
The 4.3 in the new F430 is amazing, the sound is enough to make me need some quiet time after one passes.. In full agreement with Usual Suspect tho, BMW engines (apart from their 4 cylinder ones which are absolutely gutless) can shit all over almost anything the rest of the world can throw at them. Same with their gearboxes. That said, the 5.4L supercharged V8 in the SL55 AMG is prettyt special..
