You are wrong about the heads also........ C5R..... and I will point out a few others not mentioned in this thread..... TEA.....ETP (11 degree heads)......DART Racing (a direct copy of the C5R head)....and of course the big AFRs.......
It may not be saying much but more from the factory is more period. For what it is worth to the best of my knowledge and I don't closely follow these things a ford modular powered car has ran a better slip than any lsx powered car.
Not NA, we are just now getting the power adder kits that have been available to the modular motor for years. I know for a fact that no Mod motor has ran faster NA than an LSX, nor have they gone faster on the gas either. Great the mod motor has made faster passes on blowers and turbos, but if we wanted such an item for an LSX it had to be custom made. Within the last two years we have finally gotten the options of big turbo setups and let me tell ya, they are flying....................It is much easier to develope a power adder in the aftermarket world when the car already had a power adder to begin with.
