According to R&T, GM did think of boring it out to 8.3 liters, but thought it was too big for a Small Block and you would have the displacement whiners. GM can't win. BMW is using forced induction and I don't see anyone complaining......

very true but BMW isn't aiming to be a supercar. BMW is looking to get more power out of their cars while keeping driveabilty and fuel economy. GM is thinking POWER POWER POWER and the easiest way to get there was to throw a blower on it. Im not bashing this car because ill probably be one of the first ones to get it but i certainly wish they changed some things about it.
