I'm just saying. The Engine of the Year award usually goes to the most technically advanced engine anyway, not on affordability, availability, maintainability, etc... And as I recall... the VR38DETT hasn't won any Engine of the Year award either, did it? And lots of small sports car manufacturers do use LS engines a lot.

I'm not saying the VR38DETT is a bad engine. I'm just saying that it's probably easier to make 600hp with the LS3.

Of course, this was a case of a joke taken too seriously.
