LT1s look OLD. They arent sexy, I dont know where all my LT1 hate stems from. But... I just hate how they look. I would never drive one.

I happen to prefer the LT1 SS Look, but a clean LS1 SS is awesome.

A 35th Anniversary... Nice.

A 30th Anniversary... Fantastic.

Seriously!

I'm stuck between either doing an LS1 front end conversion for the clean look, or keeping what I've got and go for a more aggressive approach...

its all of opinion. if you let us decide, theres a 50% chance you wont like what you got.

although FWIW, if i wanted an older looking, angular car, id buy a grand national. LS1 SS ftw over here.

The lt1 scoop looks better being bigger. But,I like the ls1 frontend and motor way better. The ls1 just needs a bigger hood scoop.

Here you go! LT1 SS looks much more aggressive, IMO.
