With the LS2 I've read a few reviews of them running 13.8 - 13.9 in the 1/4 @ like 101mph This SUV could take out a stock LT1 I would dare to say I want one

Yeah, it would.

Wonder if this package is earmarked for a future 6 speed auto?
I've been wondering and asking about this for a while...

I think that the new L92/6L80E with 3.08 or 3.42 gears would be a MUCH better drivetrain for the TBSS. More cubic inches, better cylinder heads, more power, more torque, lower RPM, VVT, DoD, closer gear spacing, etc. It should be able to run nearly a half second quicker in the 1320 while getting better gas mileage
