i can see two examples of this right now. One, there is too much comparing apples to bananas, j-spec. imports cant really be compared to the american v8 (btw there is no replacement for displacment, anything which can be done to a little I6 or I4 can be done to a larger engine for larger power and lets not forget touque which is a very important factor in drag racing). Two, the ford vs chevy arguement will never end, they both have pros and cons and the "one up" cycle will never end. One question, why is it that you ford folks seem to always bring in imports(which are superior to domestics) to argue with?
