Strong? Yeah, compared to a bone-stock LS1. Torque? Not even close, IMHO, but maybe I was spoiled (I had a cammed/juiced 2000 Z28). BTW, worthy noting - the LS1's for F-bodies were very badly underrated - mine put down ~300 to the wheels in stock form...

However, what the 370 has over it is FAR better handling, and, IMHO, way higher fun-factor (not to mention looks).
