Given 5.0L cranks are readily available for LS and LT engines, it would be a worry if they run as 6.2L motors... The LS & LT motors are restricted by the flow of the cylinder head, therefore they make much the same power as a 5.0L as a 6.2L, albeit with a lower level of torque that better matches the Ford's 5.0L.

IMO, running the (readily available) 5.0L OEM cranks in the Chevrolet engines would be the fairer solution.

This is gonna cause controversy if they don’t achieve the parity. If they both have 5.0L, then why don’t they restrict them both to that? Why let one and not the other have a potentially more powerful version? It’s slightly naive of them to think they could achieve parity just like that. It’s easier to keep all engines to the same litres
