Check out the new GMC Acadia that is replacing the TB/Envoy... it's even better.

While I don't disagree with you that the new ones are better, I'll take a maintenance-whore german engineered rattlebox anyday over any GM toaster, however euro-inspired it is. (but a sierra for a heavy duty hauler might someday win over $40k of mine)

to each their own, everyone has different needs/wants in their cars.

I know I've asked you this before, but :wtf: is a Z16?

Any torque numbers on that LS3 or did I miss them when I skimmed the article?

Can they please make a friggin Z06 drop-top already!

a Z16 is the Le Mans Commemorative Edition Z06... the differences are racing wheels, carbon fiber hood, badging, shocks, suspension... and the stripes ;) there were only 2024 of them made and there are probably about 1800 left.

I always think it's a typo when I see you posting about your Z16, now I got it!

The LS7 is just about strong enough to handle a cam and bolt-ons. There have been some bad outcomes when putting boost to it. However, there are a few well running nitrous cars...but again...it's a glitch in the tune away from being a pile of scrap. Either way, those things are potent out of the box. It takes almost nothing to go 10's, and I'm sure cam and bolt-ons would give you a nice, reliable low-10 second car.

If you ask me, the new LS3 in the '08 C6 looks to be the perfect platform/introduction to add the blower too for the SS/Stingray/Blue Devil.
