Imagine being so rich that you have to complain about the cost of cars you don't own.AGAIN!
For the sake of resale value I hope this is a mistake

If you read more of the forum instead of running your pie hole you would know this is not possible..

^^^Never mind. People know more than the engineers who built these vehicles.
Glad to see another person entertaining the whole community.

I don't know if you are taking a shot at me but I have been to meet and greets with the Cadillac V-Team and they talk about engine choice and why they made the choices they did...

There would be no point of putting a LT4 in a 4BW, you could never put enough tire on it to cope.

for the 
watching...Finally, some entertainment in this forum. Been too busy enjoying my 5BW manual. It's really a great car but it makes me sad every day since a Credit Union "owns it." But then I look at my cash making me money and I feel a lot better.

True, it's often tricky enough to get it to stick in a 5BW.
That's a ridiculous statement.
Michelins work with that power, and Toyo R888 can handle BIG power.
Sincerely asking,
how exactly did Caddy justify their engine choices?

The LT4 does not fit into a car the size of the CT4.
The only thing that's overflowing with shit is your mouth.
Why don't we all meet at the NJMP forum event with so we can see what's what?
I guarantee everyone will be much more polite in person, and that some of you probably already know me and my cars.

And the LT5 would not fit in the 5BW...
And the only person who believes that obvious BS, has never built a car in their life, and isn't even aware that the CT4 shares the same chassis with the Camaro ZL1 that runs the the LT4 .....
The fact that you don't realize the LT4 and LT5 share practically the same dimensions, proves you have no idea what you're talking about.
The LT5 fits, and 5BW owners will be fitting TVS2650 blowers in their cars, now that HP tuners has access to the ECU.
I look forward to bumping this thread in the future.

@Mirza Grebovic in short said this about the LT5.
“So if you put the LT5 in the CT5, we ran into simple issues – you can’t see out of the car. In the ZR1, you can notice that it’s a dry sump system and it uses that shaker hood. We couldn’t put a shaker hood on the CT5,” Grebovic said. “You would have to make it so high that you can’t see outside the car, and we wouldn’t have met regulatory requirements for vision.”

Here's Why The Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing Does Not Use LT5 V8 Engine
The 2022 Cadillac CT5-V Blackwing is outfitted with the supercharged 6.2L V8 LT4 engine, rather than the more-powerful LT5. Here's why.
