95 is a good year to have,really opens up a lot of engine possibilities for your car.

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:

Uh huh…

Or just buy a LS1 car for less then 10k and a cam kit and be just as fast as you :tup: 😉

well i have decided to go with the ls1, but not sure what i will need for the swap from the v6 to the ls1. i know i will need a motor and trannybut not so sure about what else . any advice would be great.

quick answer is: engine, transmission, k member, computer, harness, guage cluster. fuel system is going to have some issues too.

with a 95, it would be easier to go the LT1 route. and they can be just as fast, so dont discount it
