Big displacement AMG engines allow for a much more usable power band in a package that is much less stressed.
If I wanted a big block engine, I'd get the last gen ZO6.

It's sad how people in this thread all prefer big block, low tech engines... it's also sad how these people have no interest in a 458, F12, Gallardo, Aventador, or GT3.
