This is why TGO can be misleading at times
Also I drive the vert everywhere. To dinner, track and back, drove it to floriduh and back. So why is using a gen I block wrong? 
Tho when I built my engine I just got done spending the cash on heads and intake when the bearings let go..... I would have done an LS instead haha |
Bad choice or words, I admit, nothing wrong with using a Gen one in a street car. Hell I'm doing so now. LOL. Just saying with 350 cubes and a TPI intake...not really much can do to get past 500 at the crank, let alone the wheels. I agree TGO can be misleading, I just was offered a deal on a LSX motor that I honestly would have been stupid to say no to. If the OP wants to play with a gen one, by all means do so. Nothing wrong with the choice, its the intake and cubes that can be limiting in his goal though.
