10.8-6 Consecutivly in the 1/4 (on radials), no overheating issues. Maybe some panels that are slightly more flush, oh and one last thing. Not being ballhair close to a Vette in every category unless it was in the $150,000 realm as well.
But hey, who said bang for buck was all it was cracked up to be!

Bah! Who needs dishes....just increase the head chamber volume and go with some flattops - no ridges for hotspots. 
Then find a daily-driveable drivetrain to handle it all....LOL

What's interesting is the engine rating for the LS7 was done using the new system specified by the SAE and is the only one to do so thus far. That system uses a more extensive loading system to more accurately predict real world horse power.
Notice it has:
Titanium Rods & intake valves
Sodium filled exhaust valves
Forged Crank
Dry sump oiling.
