Default Ok....This may or may not be..

A worthless thread but...

Why do people keep trying to tell me the LT1's had more torque then the LS1.


I have yet to see a dyno sheet to prove this but people keep trying to tell me the LT1 had more torque..>???

They don't have more tq, the tq comes on lower in the RPM band than the ls1 which gives it a "SOTP" of the feeling... It kind of tricks you into thinking it makes more tq because it is instant.

Ls1s make more HP and more TQ at peak and under the curve.

That's exactly what I told this guy with his 94 LT1.....he insisted he didn't have to because he knew....I even pulled dyno's from both and Lemons, I told him word for word what you just said...... I guess some LT1 owners are just jealous over the LS1's...I know if I spent ever dime I had on a 97 Z28, brand new, and the next year they came with LS1's I'd be mad too...lol
