I will not comply. I will not lie down. I will not go quietly. I will not submit. I will not roll over. I will not shut up.

Variable Valve timing and ported fuel injection, we have the technology. It doesn't sound as cool but it's BRILLIANT!!!

When you control fuel and spark at over 500 times a second, smooth idle is a cake-walk!
Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 LS9 Engine 638-horsepower 595 lb.-ft. of torque
No VVT, just a good old pressure-charged, push rod motor.

And yes, you would be surprised how many MIM parts are used in not only this LS9 but all current production engines!

Is a person who's afraid of or averse to MIM a *MIMophobe* ? 
Is a person who's afraid of guns and MIM vexed with *HoploMIMophobia* ?

That surprises me I thought they would have used some sort of Variable Valve timing. I guess none of the LS or LT motors had vvt? At least as far as I know? So that makes sense. Do they still you use the same type of distributor as the other LS motors?

Lol nah I was at work:/ I am again tonight but i stand ready to lock the gates down and walk off (I'm kidding, because that would be kidnapping x100 counts)
MIM is Metal Injected Molding, which is a way to make more complex parts. Think model airplanes but with metal

Thank you.
Enjoy those MRE's. Tonight I'm eating a ham sandwich on an onion roll and some homemade chicken noodle soup.
