I have, they do sound good and the video of the car you posted sounds good as well. I just think the LT's have the old school deep muscle car sound especially with chambered exhaust.

I like my lt1 because it makes more torque then a 3406 CAT and it runs 14s in the eighth mile.

The LS1 Camaros could be the world's fastest catfish.

I agree...the LT1 still sounds better! I was just pointing out LS1's sound good with TD's....no rasp. I appreciate your civil response and not taking my previous post out of context.

You mean it was, don't you, man-crush? I thought you were peddling the engine on LTxTech as a fresh rebuild? Why did it need to be rebuilt anyway?

Sorry, I'm not one of those tools who types out what I did to my car to impress no one. I built it, I race it, I enjoy it. To put things in perspective, the roll bar is not for show. I'm glad you are so proud of your boltons though!

It probably doesn't have 2000 miles on it? It has not been touched since I first put it together. It is still sitting in the car, running like a champ, and will remain there till someone buys the motor or car at an amount I like. Nice try, Richard. How is your pile coming along? Why did it need a rebuild?

I prefer a LT so while the LS is out front I can say to myself "damn my tail lights look way better."
