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.

I think LTNKLR01 will be in the 11's with his puny 4.8 this year

Then when we are done with a built 4.8 shortblock,going for the 10's
