the new viper vvt
if the viper's new vvt works well, will we see SOHC engines "soon", running as well as DOHC do now? would the possible complexity of this keep it only in the viper/ or "hemi's"? *can be moved if need be*

ls3 and the V6 HV's
of course it's a tad jumping ahead...(ls3 reveal saturday?) what will the ls3 have improved over the ls2 (other than displacement and power)? will this mean anything quickly ( by 09my) for the high value v6's? those v6's seem like a good thing for the Vue XE, the aura, g6 and the impala, for being a mid level engine. with the 08 malibu losing it's 3.5L (as of right now), will this engine continue in the "NG" Aura/G6? the impala is questionable with the zeta replacement being .."reevaluated" the 3.9L has pretty much been designated an impala (excluding the uplander) only engine, but when the 3.5L recently got the tad HP boost, why not the 3.9L? i know the 3.9L has received AFM, and is getting flex fuel for 08... what do you think the future has in store for the v6 pushrod engines at and past 09? i think everyone could agree a good manual "behind" them would be great, but unlikely? move toward a 3v setup or a DI setup? anything at all?

ONTARIO SET TO BAN BULBS BY 2012
about the mercury... supposedly it's less than the amount that would be emmited from a coal power plant over a bulbs life. of course, coal isn't everywhere, it's getting "cleaner", but still makes a huge chunk of the USA's power. The only thing with inc. and halogens over CFLs is the UV emmisions are practically 0. like LED lights.. which are getting better in the lumens/watt, better than cfl's, just the same reason to use CFL's over incandescents.the best white LED as of last year was close to 150L/W, where a inc. is in the middle teens lumens/watt, of 60w to 100w typical bulbs

Do you have a lead foot?
i have cases of lead foot, but typically don't see the need for it, now when i had the 83 regal wagon and gas was $1... that was a little different... the raw power of maybe 110hp in a 2+ ton car with a 3speed... yeah!!!!!!
