Parish: i think the turbo would be sick on the 4.8. Then you would be giving me a run for my money. Well untill the new engine is done...
i think v8 was just quoting me. i am just messing with you guys, it is fun.

With the short stroke, the 4.8 should be able to spin very high and very fast. I wonder what the 4.8 would do with a big cam, big stall, and a T76 turbo? Throw some good valve springs on it and see what she'll do. I know you aren't scared to break something. Give LTNKLR01 a run for his money and put your 4.8 in the 11s.

I want to find a 4.8 to put in my boat. That would be fun to replace the little 4.3 with.

Compared to my 5.7, the ol' 4.8 just couldn't cut the mustard.

and to think I was one of the ones that used to defend the 4.8!

cammed 4.8 = 14.77 @ 95
cammed 5.7 = 13.91 @ 101
