Lee,

I think we're seeing what you are saying regarding the potential of an
LT-5. We have stock block 350s making mid 500chp with some porting and cams. Then we've got bigger cube motors with fairly mild cam profiles making ~700chp. And that potential is being tapped by "shade-tree" wrenches out there (no offense Pete/Marc). So the potential is easily tapped IMO. That's a relative statement and not meant to detract from what guys like Marc, Pete, Corey et al have accomplished. It just makes me wonder what could be done with that motor if guys from LOTUS for instance were unleashed on it.
