Tue, 28 December 2004 02:51 Who says that a V8 has more torque than a six - they obviously haven't seen the torque from the VVTi 1JZ's and 2JZ's. They have more torque (and over a much wider rev range) than the Chev LS1 motor. If you want to go the V8 way there is no going past the 1UZ motor. It is light weight, four bolt mains, quad cam and multi valve heads to start with. Add a blower of some kind and they produce awesome HP without replacing / rebuilding the internals like the Chev motors. Remember modern V8's aren't the same torquey motors like they were 20yrs ago. They don't have much more torque than a 6 these days. Oh, by the way it's not something I have read - sitting in my garage is a single turbo'd 1UZ Soarer, a VVTi 1JZGTE Lexus as well as an Commodore SS with Chev LS1 engine. What more do you want for a comparison. [Report message to a moderator]
