Wow, the end of a long, impressive run for the GM big blocks.....WJ

What's going to happen to the Motor Home market? They've been using the 8100 in medium sized motor homes for a number of years.

Wish they hadn't stolen my LS6 when I was in college!

GM (Government Motors) is on its way down again.
Has the Government ever run anything for a profit?
What a shame.

They are not closing the plant, they are building hi-tech 4 cyl engines just like ford.

Is it Mercruiser who does all the 502's ? Also where are the 572 crate engines built?

Another stupid decision by GM. Making it Government Motors is not going to make it better. And now we have even more proof.
