For what you'd spend on an LS-swap, I could put that LT1 in the 10s!
agreed. I've never been beat by a ls1 yet. I just make sure I always stay one step ahead of them. build your motor right and have a 10 sec street machine that will rape ls1s all day

chas010, I'm so glad you only posted in this forum to stir **** up, it's been surprising amusing reading your posts that seem like they were typed by a 3rd grader.

Its just too bad no one on LS1tech.com will ever take your seriously again.

Hi Jay! Me and you would be a good run. I just ran some 7.30's at Dunn Tire, which is around a 7.20ish at Empire. Gonna get a cage soon and a new tranny and some other safety crap I need. Are you still rocking the 503 cam?

ls1 you can spend way less. lt1 run with boost.. look s/c lt1 only 11s but he ***** up ls1..ok s/c ls1 and i bet it runs faster than all lt1s.. Spary a 11 sec 1/4 mile when you can do that with a auto ls1 with heads and cam.. How can you really think a lt1 is the better car.. Wow funny

Why do you think ford guys still try to compare to the ls1... I never hear them really trying to compare to a stock lt1.. Its like saying the 2valve gt is better than a 4 valve.. When its not... Start with a better foundation than go faster.

Sucks to hear you are ditching the LT1 motor. Your car was always a bit of a freak runner for that mild cam.

Not worth putting money into an lt1? Damm I guess there are a lot of dumbasses out there me included. My partner runs 9's with his but I guess its not worth putting money into because its not an ls1. These ls1 people need to get off their on dicks. They act like cars were not going fast before ls1's came out. I guess nobody even raced or modified small block chevys or any car for that matter before ls1's came out as well correct? WTF!!!!!

ls1's build great power for cheap but when u already have the lt1 its cheaper to just stay with the lt1 but to each his own. still agree with ramair that ur a tool but oh well sucks to see a dumbass ruin a motor that alot of people would be proud to have in thier car but it aint ours so have fun
