I wonder why it doesn't say "STS-V" on the front plate.

Re: Cadillac V series!

The V-series was just what Cadillac needed. Those are aimed squarely at the germans.

The CTS-V, STS-V, and XLR-V will be featured in the new Xbox 360 game, Project Gotham Racing 3.

1. The aluminum block is sand cast instead of die cast, necessitating 2mm smaller bore for better fatigue life.
2. Block and head castings undergo special T7 heat treatment and stabilization for strength.
3. Intake valve seats are copper infiltrated for better heat dissipation and wear.
4. Head gaskets reinforced to withstand 9:1 compression plus 10 psi boost.
5. Bigger oil jets cool the pistons with three gallons of oil per minute.
6. Oil pump, filter are higher capacity.
7. Two mufflers quiet intake roar upstream of supercharger.
8. Starter lives below blower in the valley for improved life (no road splash).
9. Low-restriction domino-shaped mass-airflow sensor replaces screen type (not shown).
