Default How rare is the LT-5?

So, as a production engine, how rare is the LT-5? Seems like under 7000 in a six year run for a production engine is extremely rare. Who else can stack up to (or down to) these numbers?

I bet the Chev 350 is the most Prolific engine ever built.

Only 10,000 Ferrari Testarossa's made and they have camshaft blanks available for their 4.9L DOHC flat 12 cylinder engines. Good for them.

peace

Nice list of American muscle cars...
But one thing in common, they've all only got one cam!!!!
(unless I missed the Ford SOHC 427, even that had only two cams
and wasn't a "normal" option)

Not one off cars, but how many engines? A 7000 unit run I would think is a short run. There are a lot of Mopar hemi's out there. As for prancing horses in how many models will the factory install the same engine architecture? George.
