Well, i see my post was removed, I am taking this opportunity to apologize for some things I may have said to offend some folks, i will say, it helped allot to vent and I thank many for the positive words from a few, I think the title fits better now, i am going thru so much with this thing it is such a nightmare and I feel badly for anyone i might have upset a bit ******* on the old king LT1, i really get upset when folks bang on third gens so i have to put myself in yalls shoes that praise the LT1 like I do the 3rd gens, you guys have helped me so much and i am glad to help other with what knowledge i have when it comes to tech info, i will say i am happy to learn more, but man, this car is whoopin my ***.

One more reason to own a b-body, I can see and reach my motor, more than just the very top. I can sit on the core support and put my feet on the swaybar to work on say injectors or the like with the radiator, fans and WP all in place.

The b-body hood is no problem, can pull the motor without even unclipping the struts. A friend has an LT1 in a third gen and it is still a PITA to work on, much better than a fourth gen but not as nice as the b-bodies.

A B-body has as much room under the hood as a truck. Back when I had mine I remember thinking that a big block would probably look right at home in there.

Dwayne on my Y-body I can pull the engine without removing the hood, radiator etc, but getting to some of the spark plugs is a biyotch.
I watched a kid change the opti, plugs wires, install headers, etc; and the bystander trauma was so bad I believe I'll never buy a 4th Gen even if it's an LS car. I've been looking at the new C6s, C5 Z06s and the GTOs. I wish I had the money for a STS-V, maybe I'll settle for the CTS-V
