turbo LT1 or LS1?
turbo LT1 or LS1? I plan on buying a v6 camaro and putting a v8 in. I also plan on putting a turbo on as well. I haven't decided on how big, but I want to have over 500hp. Which would be a better source of power, LT1 or LS1? I know I'll have a lot of money into the turbo, so I want to start with something that'll give me good reliable hp. might be too much to ask idk. wanted to get some view points before I pull out the wallet. thanks, Melon07

IMHO, I'd go straight to ls1/ls2 co'z chances are 
, you're gonna itch for more than 500hp in the future, and by the seemingly ever growing popularity of the lsx's in turbocharging world....who knows if you might run into a great deal on a turbo kit/set-up that somebody's wanting to upgrade from

well, I want to buy a 'early' fourth generation camaro because they have the more round body style. and the only v8 then, was the LT1. so, if I want that body style, I might as well buy a v6 and convert to LS1. that way my insurance is cheaper too!
