LSx engines are great, don't get me wrong. They're really torquey and their power band is impressive. Having said that, the 4.6 is awesomely raw. Yeah mine can only handle about 450rwhp.. but it's still badass, and that number will still beat up on most camaros and GTOs encountered on the streets.

Ok then lets compare the 351w and an lsx. roughly same displacement except the ls7. The ls2 makes 350ish stock and with just a cam it will make over 400hp. A 351w will NOT make that with just a cam. The lsx series engines are some of the best and most potent engines ever produced. Ford neads to take some notes. The 4.6 2v is one of the worst engines ever made. It doesn't respond to mods well and is a turd. Yeah it can handle 450hp, but it takes ALOT to get there. Actually, you can't even get there withought some spray or forced induction.
