i agree, absolutley, 110%
BUT
you have to combine brute cubes with intelligent modern enginnering designs, and all the fancy combustion and flow technology that come with it for me to be sold.
one day, someone will make a 400 cubic inch v8 twin overhead cam multivalve with a crazy pent roof combustion chambe. combined with this will be an impressive intake manifold design, fuel infection etc etc etc...
when this engine appears on the available market... look out!
if you want to talk about bad combustion chamber design, poor flow heads and intakes, power robbing singlecam pushrod and rocker assemblies, etc etc... the cubes end up simply trying to chase the losses from every other aspect of the engine's design.
and its on these grounds that current big capacity v8's simple suck. they use brute size, rather than elegant design to make up for every other short coming.
and one word, which i doubt anyone here will know, should one day get everyone shifting in their seats... SAINTY
cheers
