Gents, since there seems to be a big discussion on that other forum on engine selection for the new C8 variants, I went browsing the Internet to compile some spec.s for comparison between our old gen. 5 small block friends and the latest DOHC V-8 and V-10 sports car engines in production, as well as the small block derived Mercury Racing SB4. Take a look and see if I missed anything.
There are a lot of TBD's on this chart because engine dry weights are hard to find. Also what is engine, and what is radiator gets more complicated for forced induction engines, so to some extent we are comparing apples, oranges and pomegranates ! Anyway, some interesting data - tell me what you think.
