There is a reason the cheaper cars did not get these. Very little gain per dollar, but a gain none-the-less.

I get those parts are expensive but it doesn't change the fact that Ford was able to put a similarly expensive engine in the GT500 and not price it around the Z06.

The BOSS 302 got a fully forged bottom end, CNC ported heads and a deep breathing intake in a mid $40s car.

Why is Ford capable of doing that and GM isn't?
