You would get a good look at my license plate, though: YOU LUZE

FYI, on a custom plate, only one of each specific letter combination is allowed. YOU LOSE was already taken, but then, you probably already knew that, and are just reaching for things to use to try and distract from the fact that your LS2 is slower than my LS3 since there is no arguing that fact.

Definitely faster than Ed's, I see some "white" in his vette picture.

My justification was wanting the better engine.

Higher octane tune.
