no because you are stating the obvious and once again no one cares what you have to say

Do i care? If i wanted my car to be the fastest LS1 EVERRRR i would have an auto, race weight wouldnt be 3750lbs and I would spray it until it blew up… Its my hobby, i enjoy driving it. I had an auto once before in a “sports car”… never again.

i love when something slightly better comes out, people say that the old version is “Absolute shit and you have to have the new one to even get out of your driveway”.

its just not true. the LS1 is a great motor. it makes good power stock mainly do to a high flow head design right out of the box.

but to say that the LT1 is total garbage and a waste of time is why i say “you know nothing” cause you prove it with your foolish exaggeration.

with some reasonably priced heads, headers, a cam and a tune, you can easily make 400HP with the LT1 and have a fun car to drive. and thats less money than a LS1 swap by far. you might need a LT4 intake though.

I never said the LT1 was junk, the LS1 is just a FAR superior design. It is completely different than the LT1, different bore, different stroke, 6 bolt main, etc etc

> The LS based GM small-block engine is the primary V-8 used in General Motors' line of rear-wheel-drive cars and trucks. Introduced in January 1995, it is a "clean sheet" design with only rod bearings and bore spacing in common with the longstanding Chevrolet small block V8 that preceded it as the basis for GM small-block V8s. The basic LS variations use cast iron blocks, while performance editions are all aluminium with cast iron cylinder liners. The LS small-block has been manufactured in three ...

an LS1 can make well over 400 rwhp with just exhaust and a cam… I never said the LT1 is a piece of shit, i just said i would never mod one, especially with the reasonably priced LS1 cars on the market. Why start behind? My $.02

i like the LS1. but he already owns the car. no sense in telling him to sell and buy another car or do a swap and burn more money. sure its more work. didnt say it wasnt.
