crazylt1 vs sherm?

I didn’t say my car was faster then his built blown LT1…

I would hope for all the money he has into his setup it would be faster then a bolt on LS1…or even a cammed LS1 :lol:

what year is your f-bod? if you stick with the one from that year it will save you a world of shit.

LT1 are cheap. And they sound BA.

If you are poor with a mullet, get an LT1

Yeah man, lt1 are the slowest car on the road, what the fuck are you even thinking… Holy ftw shit, ls1’s are GOD!!!

Money into my car?? The extra cash I spent on the blower would have been equal to the extra cash you would have to spend to buy an LS1 over an LT1. Anyways - I could have just slapped a $600 nitrous kit on there and done the same thing. But I just preferred the blower.

-The built bottom-end… ummm I’m pretty sure that doesn’t make my car any faster. Yes - it obviously did cost money (not all that much though). But it also gives me more assurance that my motor will hold together, which is always a good thing when trying to make power.
-And yes - LS1 motors must also be built if you want to put a lot of power through them and you don’t want the pistons to melt. :banghead:

I’m not saying either motor is better. Because stock for stock - there is no doubt that LS1’s are faster.

BUT, when it comes to high performance use - either motor can be taken to insane amounts of horsepower if done correctly…:tup:
