LT1 vs LT5 Cost Question

Why would a remanufactured LT5 cost less than a remanufactured LT1? I priced them both today, and the LT1 was about $1900 and the LT5 was about $1700. The core charge was less too.

I HOPE you mean LT4, because even thinking for a minute the LT5 costs under double digit (rebuilt and all that is, not a pull) is just, well I'll save the degrading comments

Keep in mind that the TT version makes well over 500ftlbs of tq. That 12.7 rating is with factory street tire tech from 1990, which we have come a loooong way from. It would be much quicker with modern DR's out back.

i used to work at advance auto parts and just for the hell of it i checked out what our cost would be for the lt1, lt4 and the lt5 what was weird was that the lt4 was cheaper than the lt1 and couldn't in a million years get an lt5 so the guy apparently looked up the lt4 instead of the lt5
