no boat pulling? emphasis on track duty?

I can produce plenty of other examples. some motors dont need modification to perform well in a truck. the LS7 would make a poor truck motor compared to the LT1.
Welcome back 2005. So you can produce plenty of other examples yet you had to dig all the way back 13 years ago?

To answer your question that you're stretching soo hard to reach, this wasn't a truck engine thrown into a Viper. This was a Viper (supercar) engine that was thrown into a truck. That is a huge difference than calling a LT1 a truck engine. That V10 had been in the Vipers since early 90s. And it had been updated over the years. Then they took that engine and placed it into a truck. Get it?

As a French guy, from the outside it is really funny to see this brand talibanism on both sides I mean
And again, even if he is a fanboy, what is wrong with that? Please, give me one legitimate reason why that is a bad thing. Since you guys like to throw that around. What is wrong about a Camaro fanboy being on a forum dedicated to Camaro? Or are you just talking out your ass and trying to insult someone?

I guarantee if the PP2 keeps up or beats the 1LE, owners here are going to pull the tire card like gangbusters.
Where did we make these complaints? Link please.

My favorite part about the 5.0 (feminine engine?) vs LT1 (truck engine?) vs 392 (boat engine?) is at least it doesn't have AFM/DoD/MDS or whatever the manufacturer wants to call it.
Yea Ford just detunes the shit out of them, kills the throttle percentage, and then you have to option the hell out of it to get the one that does their claimed 0-60 in under 4 seconds. And still end up with a mid 12 sec car on crappy tires that can't handle.
