I just totally dont get why people are so scared of the VVT block, it is a good system and even if you dont like the system you can easily eliminate it. The VVT BGE block has the most stable cylinder walls through partial siamesing of the bores, the best cooling passages, readily available... give me a BGE over a 6.1 any day of the week, I pais $300 for my last block.

I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!
