    No thats in the HSV models. This one is more based on the Trucks.

    I think hands down it shits on the old LS1 which was a great engine after 7 years of playing and tinkering with new parts it got to be a very good engine.
    But the new one is a torque beast and doesn't piston slap

    From what ive seen in the GTO's and C6's the engine is great. With a aggresive head and cam its putting down 500rwhp.

    should have put links,
    i always thought it was just a corvette engine,
    Once fanboyism infects you it impares all your judgement.
    It's like being drunk, you lack common sense and everyone laughs at you.

    Well, technically the LS2 is the Corvette engine. Not the L76/L98.

    It has (from what I've heard) improved on the VZ's 6.0L LS2. Either way, the new V8 rocks!!

    I'll say again for the millionth time, only HSV get the LS2. Holden have a more basic form of the engine.

    Yeah I know that. Holden/HSV are almost the same thing.
