Piston slap, leaking this and that, ideal problems, head lift so forth. Its all well documented.
Not to mention the DE and Rev-Up motors only put 240-246whp to the ground in stock form it's little wonder people are swapping out the minivan motor.
I wish I put my VQ into my 240 an then a LS/JZ into the Z. Oh well.

I agree with u. Any car supporting big HP is def going to run into problems.
By the way my stock Rev-Up threw down 256hp on the dyno. Lol

Thanks for the kind words. As for the poor oil consumption. This is taken car of with the new LS6 oil pump and also adding an Acusump to the mix. That in my opinion is a must for LS motors.
